Abstract

The paper presents the results of a case study, which includes an analysis of the attitudes of eight-year-old students (N = 24) and their teachers, in the process of implementing the CLIL approach in the Slovenian educational practice. With a qualitative analysis of the attitudes of students and their teachers, the potential of the CLIL approach was evaluated concerning the in-class experience of fine arts lessons taught in a foreign language. Instruments (in the form of lesson plans) were developed to obtain the empirical data. The results showed that eight-year-old students accepted the CLIL approach positively, were internally motivated, and expressed their desire to continue learning using the CLIL approach. With various visual aids and demonstrations, most of them achieved the set learning outcomes of fine arts and a foreign language.
