Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses the possibilities of developing new and spreading the existing methodological concepts of connecting and correlating the instruction of English and geography. The concept of developing new approaches relying on a multitude of new methods rests on the growing need of correlation. The correlation process itself, which of late also includes more and more other components, especially those of educational subjects, brings to the fore the teaching process of a higher quality, as well as a better understanding of this process by students. The paper suggests the correlation between the English Language and geography. Such interdisciplinary approach is supposed to render tuition better and more interesting using group work and team leaning. A systematic use of several forms of work, of different teaching methods and sources of knowledge leads to a better understanding by students as well as to a significantly deeper grasping of the meaningfulness of the teaching matter. Generally viewed, correlation speeds up and has a considerably positive effect on the achievements of students. The interdisciplinary approach to the educational work departs from the principle of integrating the meaningfully connected contents of two or more scientific disciplines (in this case subjects of instruction). We can consider this procedure useful and justified only if it leads to a more efficient instruction. The very realization of the goals of such instruction is substantiated by a quality methodic preparation as well as by a comprehensive realization of the envisaged educational tasks relative to the matter in question. The basic purpose of this paper is to shed light on the possibilities of including different components of integration during the educational process related to the subjects in primary schools.
