<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">I have worked with others, using a variety of media including ICT where appropriate, and can contribute successfully to a presentation in English, supported by use of the language I am learning, on an aspect of life in a country where the language I am learning is spoken.

 * __<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Listening and Talking Outcome __**

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Children will already know how to say different types of weather and ...

__**<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Start of the Lesson **__ <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">- Give the children a weather activity to do for the first ten minutes of the lesson. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">- Each child in the class gets a card, half of the class get a card with the weather written in French, and the other half get a card with a picture a type of weather. The aim of the game is to then go round asking each other what the weather is like until they find their matching pair, e.g the picture has to match with the weather written in french.
 * **<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Recap weather vocabulary **


 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">The children then need to **recognise that the weather comes in a pattern, certain types in certain months**. Categorising the months into seasons, and the type of weather you get in those months - recognising the change in weather, for example in january and febraury the weather is a lot different than in July and August.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Could show the children 4 forecasts for the whole of France - one in each season and they have to guess which forecast is in each season. - Identiying the change in weather throughout the year.

__** Lesson Ideas **__
 * Split the class into 4 groups and each group is given a season.


 * <span style="color: #4481fd; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">They could research what the weather is like in that season in France, perhaps in a specific place in France, then make up a map of France showing the weather for that particular season. (Would show children an example of this, as stated above.)
 * <span style="color: #4481fd; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">They would then, as a group, have to show their weather forecast to the rest of the class, pointing out the weather in French.
 * <span style="color: #4481fd; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">Write a small description as to why you would go to France in this season, stating what there is to do there then.


 * <span style="color: #ff00ff; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">They could research that season in France.

 * <span style="color: #7f19d7; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">They could research the most popular place to go on hoiday in France in that particualr season,or chosen month within that season.
 * <span style="color: #7f19d7; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">They would have to explain:
 * <span style="color: #7f19d7; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">Why people go there then
 * <span style="color: #7f19d7; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">The weather then
