French: The Weather

Over the past few weeks in French lessons we have been learning about the seasons. We created our own season wheels and thought about the different colours associated with each season. We would now like for you to learn some new vocabulary to be able to talk about the weather.

Weather Vocabulary

For help with the pronunciation, why not watch this episode of ‘Not Again Farley!’ which focuses on the weather. Follow the link below to the BBC Bitesize website:

Have a go at learning the new vocabulary. You might like to try creating your own poster, PowerPoint or flashcards to help you to remember the new words!

Baking or cooking is a really fun activity to do with your grown ups, it’s also a really good way to practise your maths and reading skills! Have a go at baking these shortbread biscuits or another recipe!

Story Time

Reception Staff are doing a daily story time on Tapestry. We have also uploaded these videos onto YouTube and created a playlist for you to watch anytime. Don’t forget that there is also a bedtime story uploaded every day on the website featuring staff from all over the school. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4eYibLKDXpKak-NaZqsuN2QofGTIk5cn
