A set of cards in French, each giving a simple sentence about the weather in a certain place in France. Locations have been chosen to be evenly spaced around a map of France. I have used these as a class speaking activity, where pupils in the class read from the cards and one pupil must attach or draw a weather symbol onto a map of France for the class to check. Could also be a quick starter - print them out large enough for all to see, stick on a map as a true/false reading for the geographical locations, or ask pupils to draw the weather on their own maps (a simple hexagon works fine).
