Teacher tip
Point to clothes kids are wearing and have the class name each one in French.
How to use it
- Act out each weather sentence: shiver for il fait froid, fan yourself for il fait chaud.
- Look out the window together and ask “Quel temps fait-il ?”
- Say every French word out loud and have kids echo it before they read or write it.
Watch for
Translating word for word. French says il fait froid (it makes cold), not “il est froid”.
Talk about it
- What do you wear when il neige?
- Is this word masculine or feminine? How can you tell?
