The integration of non-linguistic subjects and foreign language (CLIL), here teaching mathematics in a foreign language for primary school, is a course that seeks to broaden the skills of future teachers by those specific to this way of teaching. CLIL is a broad term that refers to the teaching of a non-language general education subject through a foreign language (e.g. mathematics in English). Teaching has two objectives, one related to the relevant mathematical content, the other related to the foreign language. Innovative contexts are chosen for the mathematical content, which lead to a good understanding of mathematical concepts by primary school learners.

Syllabus
In the course, we aim to broaden the skills of future teachers to include those specific to the method of teaching mathematics through a foreign language (CLIL). The course content is adapted to two objectives - one related to mathematical content, the other related to foreign language. Innovative contexts are chosen for the mathematical content, which lead to a good understanding of mathematical concepts by the pupils in Grade 1. Teaching will be conducted in a creative, constructivist way so that students also have the opportunity to experience the joy of small mathematical discoveries at the primary school mathematics level .
