Abstract

The purpose of this thesis was to provide a review booklet for Natural Sciences in English, based on the CLIL teaching model. The booklet was created after practical work carried out at a public school in the Venecia neighborhood of Bogotá, when it became apparent that fifthgrade students had low retention of vocabulary used in knowledge activities after short breaks, such as Holy Week. The results indicated that most were between Pre A1 and A1.1. Thus, the exploratory study characterized communicative competence and learning styles in English science classes, choosing four topics from the natural sciences curriculum suggested by MEN (1998) and the CEFR for Colombia, which proposes reaching level A1.2, l, for the “recapitulation and review” experiment. The booklet invites the integration of educational activities and playful strategies into bilingualism through gamification tools and visual and auditory stimuli, which are expected to be of great support to teachers because they stimulate episodic, semantic, and working memory, contributing to the teaching and learning of English vocabulary within the framework of bilingual education
