Lernen ohne Lernen! - Activity Journals für Eltern
Liebe Eltern!
Zu oft wird Englisch
als reines „Fach in der Schule“ von den HTL-SchülerInnen unterschätzt. Tatsächlich gibt es in anderen Fächern kaum
so viele Möglichkeiten, zu Hause zu „lernen ohne Lernen“: Videos, DVDs, Bücher,
Artikel, Musik, Memes, usw. Schüler, die
sich mit Englisch außerhalb der Schule beschäftigen, haben natürlich bessere
Englischkenntnisse und bessere Noten.
Mit nur zwei Wochenstunden in der Schule ist es zwingend erforderlich, unseren
Schülern das bewusst zu machen.
Zu diesem Zweck haben
die Schüler in diesem Schuljahr eine Aufgabe, die zur schriftlichen Mitarbeit
zählt. Sie sollten Aktivitäten auf
Englisch unternehmen und kurze Berichte darüber schreiben. Sie haben eine lange Liste von Aktivitäten,
die sie auswählen können, um
Hörverständnis, Leseverständnis, Sprechen und Schreiben zu üben. Die Berichte sind als Tagebuch zu verfassen (Schulquart
oder A5-Heft, liniert mit Korrekturrand) und jeder Schüler/jede Schülerin
sollte mindestens 10 Berichte pro Semester (je mehr, desto besser!) über verschiedene Aktivitäten schreiben. Ein Bericht besteht aus 100+ Wörtern ( ca. 10
Sätze). Die Schüler
können zusätzliche Aktivitäten im Blog (https://ennsvalleyenglish.blogspot.co.at/p/ideas-for-english-activity-journal.html)
finden.
Dieses English Activity Journal beträgt 30% der Mitarbeitsnote. Ich bedanke mich bei Ihnen im Voraus für die Unterstützung zu Hause!
