CLIL WITH LAPBOOK (CLIL MIT LAPBOOK in the German version) is the first CLIL-based programme specially designed for years three to five of primary school for teaching science according to the CLIL approach. Developed by a team of Erickson experts, it is a complete programme that meets the needs of the teachers who already use or intend to use the CLIL methodology. It contains both material for pupils and a teacher’s guide.

The presentation of the subject contents occurs in an innovative multisensorial and collaborative workshop-type setting. Using the Student’s Lapbook, pupils develop their linguistic and didactic competences by creating a sort of folder in which they will insert minibooks or templates regarding the main concepts discussed in class.
