, Introduction
First of all; the entire paper is written in English. I talk a lot about myself during
this report, which is why I’d like to keep the rest short. English is something I
enjoy. I still use it in my everyday life when playing games and it’s something I
was always quite good at. I currently teach year 7 at X in X.
This report presents an English portfolio for primary education. It includes a test
of my own skill, a didactic analysis and a proposal for a learning progression for
English at de Regenboog, and a CLIL lesson series. The CLIL series focuses on
inventions, leading to a Shark Tank pitch as the final product.
Supporting materials such as worksheets, language support (scaffolding), and
evaluation elements are included in the enclosures.
Please enjoy reading this report.
Kind regards,
