Seasons
Describe an activity from a season until they determine what the activity is (in English) and which season
with which it is associated (in French).
Examples: This is an activity done in the mountains with boards on your feet and poles in your hands. You
wear warm clothing. (skiing – hiver). You do this activity in water with a bathing suit. (swimming - été) You
have to gather up all the dead leaves. (raking – automne) Your dad asks you to remove the snow from the
driveway. (shoveling – hiver) You help your mother plant seeds and bulbs (planting flowers and vegetables
– printemps), slide on ice, put up three cold white balls on top each other with a hat and a face, etc.
Months
Write up the months of the year on colored strips of paper. Tape them all mixed up on the board and see if
the kids can put them in order. Ask which months are in été. Ask the students to repeat each weather
related sentence after you. Ask them what the weather is like in été.
