CAN TRANSLATION BE USEFUL IN A SECOND LANGUAGE TEACHING? A PROPOSAL FOR USING TRANSLATION IN BILINGUAL PHYSICAL EDUCATION THROUGH CONTENT AND LANGUAGE INTEGRATED LEARNING

Santiago García-Calvo

Abstract


This work aims to determine the useful of translation in FLT (Foreign Language Teaching), to analyze pros and cons of translation and discussing both postulates. It is tried to argue the integrating of translation as a non-linguistic discipline called BPE (Bilingual Physical Education). Therefore, a brief review of translation along history to this day is made and an integrated proposal in BPE-CLIL (Bilingual Physical Education in Content and Language Integrated Learning) is presented that it is addressed to 6th grade of Primary education. After applying the proposal in the educational context, it is shown that there is compatibility and translation can be used in a meaningful way in foreign language teaching regarding non-linguistic disciplines.
