Tóm tắt

Bilingual teaching is considered an approach capable of simultaneously supporting students’ subject-specific and foreign language competencies. This study investigates the current situation of bilingual teaching and the use of bilingual comics in primary Science education. The research employed a mixed-methods approach through a survey of 99 primary school teachers combined with semi-structured interviews. The findings indicate that teachers have initially implemented bilingual teaching by using English to support students in accessing scientific content. Teachers also showed relatively positive perceptions of the role of bilingual comics in supporting Science learning, particularly in enhancing learning interest, supporting vocabulary acquisition, and increasing student engagement in classroom activities. However, the implementation process still faces several difficulties related to teachers’ English proficiency, supporting learning materials, and instructional guidance. Based on the findings, the article initially suggests possible directions for exploiting bilingual comics through experiential and inquiry-based teaching models to support the implementation of content and language integrated learning in primary Science education.
