Learn History in English! is a project created to teach History in English to 12 to 15 year-old Secondary students, whose mother tongue is other than English (CLIL Content and Language Integrated Learning). The project is split in 3 modules which are focused on four main themes: politics, society, economy and culture about Egypt, Rome and the Middle Ages (Life in Ancient Egypt, Ancient Rome and Middle Ages). The students are intended to work with texts and a great variety of activities for about 140 hours long. The visuals are also an important component in the handout. The students are going to cope with the ICT, since some material is on the net.References
