Description

In the tenth edition, Lingo explores the world of trees. Scientific content on the topic of trees for living is prepared according to the school subjects geography, biology, chemistry, physics and technology. They are supplemented by three integrated "kitchen experiments" that can be carried out by the learners themselves with just a few utensils. As an introduction to the topic, the question of what a tree actually is is explored. In addition to different types of trees, the distribution of trees and forests on earth, different climate zones and different layers of the forest are discussed. The importance of nutrients for trees is also discussed and photosynthesis is explained. The use of wood as a raw material is also highlighted and supplemented by independent Internet research by the learners. In the accompanying experiments, learners make a flower drink, among other things.


The learning objectives are:
 
  • to introduce learners to the topic of the trees and to communicate general and technical knowledge
  • to be able to communicate in writing simple facts from their own horizon of experience in the subject area "trees”
  • to acquire basic vocabulary and technical terms and use them in a factual and contextual manner
  • to provide information on familiar subject matter in simple sentences, ask questions and respond to queries
  • to extract essential technical information from didactic reading texts, supported by linguistic and methodological aids
  • to investigate everyday experiences and culturally specific features in the subject area "trees" and to be able to discuss them in the appropriate language register
