TitleInterdisciplinary, Theme-Based Instruction
Body
Here's something for every elementary-level educator: use interdisciplinary, theme-based instruction to bolster students' communications skills, in English and in other languages.

Early language programs should focus on students communicating ideas in real ways: understanding and communicating meaning and transferring vocabulary and language skills to convey other ideas.

Learn how to use themes to make language instruction more meaningful and seamlessly integrated into the school day. Students not only learn the language, but also content and culture, and to express themselves in real-world situations.
