    Zipf Plot

    The frequency with which a word is used is inversely proportional toits rank in the table of frequency-of-use of all words in thatlanguage. So, the second most-commonly used word in English("of") is used half as often as the most common word ("the"). Thethird most-common word is used one third as often as the mostcommon, and so on. Amazingly and no one quite knows why

    this law (formulated by the American linguist George KingsleyZipf in 1935) holds true for every known language. It also appliesto letters and phonemes.

    You can even use Zipf's plot to work out whether sounds are alanguage or just noise. By plotting the frequency of the noises,you will get a slope of negative one (a straight line going

    diagonally from upper left to lower right) if it conforms to Zipf'slaw. Dolphin noises produce such a slope; the chattering ofsquirrel monkeys doesn't.

    Podcasts

    Teachers who already dabble at podcastinggenerally use podcasts in two main ways:

    as a way to deliver content to your students. Think

    of podcasts as lessons to take away: providing yourstudents have subscribed to your podcasts, onceyou upload a new episode it will automatically bedelivered to your students without any furtherintervention from you or them.

    as a means to showcase your students work. Thinkof it as a new and exciting homework project. Showyour students the podcasting basics and they willproduce stunning pieces of work that you and theywill be able to proudly show off.

    Enough of me

    Watch the video

    What topic could it be used for?

    How could you do an ICT lessonbased on it?

    How could you do home learning

    based on it? Where would you store it within your

    teaching tools?

    Theory

    CLIL's multi-faceted approach can offer a variety ofbenefits. It:

    * builds intercultural knowledge and understanding* develops intercultural communication skills

    * improves language competence and oral communication skills* develops multilingual interests and attitudes* provides opportunities to study content through differentperspectives* allows learners more contact with the target language* does not require extra teaching hours

    * complements other subjects rather than competes with them* diversifies methods and forms of classroom practice* increases learners' motivation and confidence in both thelanguage and the subject being taught

    No-one is perfect

    While I love my (stolen/borrowed)lesson It can be more PLTs orientated

    How could this be developed forIndependent Learners andCollaborative Learners?

    If feeling adventurous Add some ICT!

    How could it fit into other subjects?
