Teacher tip
Have kids sort the found words into weather and clothes before checking the key.
How to use it
- Look out the window together and ask “Quel temps fait-il ?”
- Point at your own clothes as you name them.
- 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
- Quel temps fait-il aujourd’hui ?
- How do you say that in French?
