Abstract | Modifications to an existing secondary school foreign language program in Arlington County, Virginia, are described that were developed when the middle school program began in September, 1990, and sixth graders were incorporated into the foreign language program. Lessons were tested in an alternative school prior to adoption in the middle schools. Content-based units were developed in the following core areas: social studies (Egypt, immigration, home and neighborhood); science (plants, the bee, boats, heart and blood circulation, human cell); and fine arts (painting). Extensive hands-on experience was also incorporated into lessons. For each lesson plan, goals, content objectives, language objectives, activities, grammar, vocabulary, and materials were identified. Difficulties arose in locating authentic source materials and in learning how to make a lesson manageable for the students. Evaluation questions are noted (e.g., middle school/high school articulation, questions of credit, parent reactions), and the lesson plans for the units on the bee and immigration are included in this report. Contains 9 references. (LB) |
