Use this PPT to introduce the weather in French. To start, the weather is shown on a map of France. It is worth looking at the patterns of language used here (il y a / il). The patterns are colour-coded. Then the vocab is formally introduced. Following this, pupils must identify the weather in French as it whizzes past.

French - Telling the time

Use this PPT to teach pupils how to tell the time in French. There is an accompanying worksheet they can complete while doing this. The first few slides recaps on telling the time in English, as some pupils struggle with using an analogue clock to tell the time. After introducing the time in French, practise what they have learned by asking pupils to either shout out the time in French or write the time in words on mini whiteboards.

French - Time expressions for tenses

Introduce pupils to different time phrases that refer to particular tenses (past, present & future), allowing them to show off their knowledge of tenses in a simple way. After introducing the time phrases, pupils must identify which tense must be used for each time phrase that appears on the board. They do this by stepping backwards (past), stomping (present) and stepping forwards (future).
