“…Also, language integration into science is essential in other countries where the Language of Teaching and Learning (LoTL) is not the learners' mother tongue. In China (Macaro & Childs, 2019), Sri Lanka (Vithanapathirana & Nettikumara, 2020), Argentina and Spain (Banegas & del Pozo Beamud, 2020), Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong (Lin et al, 2019), and indeed in other parts of the world where LoTL is not the mother tongue of the learners.…”

The language of teaching and learning challenges Physical Sciences teachers and impacts learners’ achievements. The study aimed to investigate how language literacy is integrated into the teaching of Physical Sciences. A descriptive survey design was adopted. The participants were five Grade 10 Physical Sciences teachers and 211 learners (108 boys; 103 girls) from nine schools exhibiting low academic achievements. Data were gleaned through the Literacy Skills Usage Survey Questionnaire (LSUSQ). The results show that 77.78% of the teachers did not engage learners in report writing and arguments which are fundamental to language literacy, suggesting that integrating literacy in science teaching was inadequate. Learners had difficulties in contributing to word walls, writing reports, and arguing from evidence. The lack of integration suggests that teachers lacked training in integrating language literacy into science teaching. These findings underscore the need for workshops to enable teachers to incorporate language literacy in teaching Physical Sciences. Keywords: arguing from evidence, integrate, language literacy, reading and report writing

“…Language is not just an introduction to learning but also targets learned besides the content itself. At present CLIL has been widely implemented in Europe and some Asia such as Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong (Lin et al 2019). This approach can have a positive impact on learning outcomes (Gulyas et al 2015).…”

This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of teaching materials based on Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) on scientific literacy on the topic of The Nature of Matter. Teaching material on this topic integrated the 4 pillars in CLIL, namely Content, Cognition, Communication and Culture. The Scientific Literacy Skills Scale (SLSS) measured in this study consisted of three aspects, namely explaining scientific phenomena, evaluating and designing scientific investigations, conducting data interpretation and scientific experiments. This study used an experimental method that was tested on 100 students in 3 schools that use English in chemistry learning. Student selection was done by purposive sampling. Data was collected through tests on students' scientific literacy and students' feedback questionnaires. The result of the analysis of N-Gain literacy percentage was 57%, it meant that this teaching material is quite effective in increasing student scientific literacy. Students' responses to teaching materials were in the very good category. From this study, it can be concluded that CLIL-based teaching material in the topic of the nature of matter is effective on students' scientific literacy.
