CLIL Music Lesson Plan: Musical Instruments and Their Parts

Lesson Objectives:

Topic: Musical Instruments and Their Parts


Linguistic Focus: Gerund vs. Infinitive (+to)
Target Students: Intermediate English Language Learners

Warm-up Activity (10 minutes)

 Content: Show images of various musical instruments (e.g., guitar, piano, drum, violin) and
ask students to name them.

 Language: Introduce the key vocabulary for instrument parts (e.g., strings, keys, drumhead,
bridge, bow).

Task:

 Pair Work: Ask students to discuss in pairs and guess the function of each part of the
instrument (e.g., "What do you think the strings on the guitar are for?").
 Whole-Class: Share responses with the class to activate prior knowledge about musical
instruments.

Presentation: Gerunds and Infinitives (+to) (15 minutes)

 Grammar Focus: Explain when to use gerunds (e.g., "playing", "tuning") and infinitive
+ "to" (e.g., "to play", "to tune"). Provide rules and examples related to musical
instruments.

Examples:

o Gerund: "Playing the piano takes years of practice."


o Infinitive + to: "I want to learn to play the violin."

 Content Integration: Use lyrics to practice the grammar

Group Work: Matching Instruments and Parts (10 minutes)

Task: In small groups, students receive a worksheet with images of musical instruments and a
list of their parts. They need to match the parts with the correct instruments and choose one
musical instrument and write a short paragraph describing its parts and how to play it, using both
gerunds and infinitives.

Example: “Playing the guitar requires tuning the strings carefully. To play a song, you need to
strum the strings.”

Reflection on Learning Strategies (10 minutes)

 Ask students reflection questions to encourage students to think about their learning
process, both in terms of content and language.Content:"Which instrument parts were
the easiest to remember? Why?" "Which instrument was new to you?" Language: "Was
it easier for you to use gerunds or infinitive + to? Why?" "What strategies did you use to
remember when to use gerunds and when to use infinitives?"
