👋 Hi there. Thanks for watching the video and for commenting! You're looking for the best way to teach language that complements theme-based instruction? 🤔 While both Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) and Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) can be effective, TBLT is probably the best. Nevertheless, rarely is teaching a choice of approaches; it's almost always a blend, but with more emphasis given to certain approaches depending on the context. 📚 TBLT focuses on using real-life activities as the focus for language learning. This aligns with theme-based learning, as it encourages students to use language meaningfully and authentically within the context of the specific themes. By incorporating theme-relevant tasks, your students will gain a deeper understanding of the language you're teaching; they'll also enjoy learning more. 💬 You should still integrate aspects of CLT in your teaching, as it emphasizes communication and learner-centeredness. As mentioned above, remember to adapt your teaching approach based on the specific needs and goals of your students.
Hi Kier. Thanks for watching! Is this question for a school project? All elementary school teachers are required to teach multiple subjects. We believe that high school teachers should be required to do the same thing - after all, you as a student are expected to do this, so why shouldn't a teacher be able to do so? At Pear Tree, we collaborate as a teaching team to plan our themes so that they are truly interdisciplinary. At the same time, we provide support and training for our teachers to ensure that they can cope with teaching all subject matter/skills well. I hope that helps!

Excellent descriptive video, it's a lot help for my Master's thesis, thanks Paul. Once I finish I'll send you my resume!!!
Many thanks for the feedback!
Hey , what's the most suitable theory that goes hand in hand with theme-based language instruction, is it CLT OR task based language teaching..?

Could you recommend any resources for reading regarding theme-based learning?
Is there anything in particular you are hoping to find out more about?
who are the interdisplinary teaching teams?
