Activity 1 Listen and repeat.
Objectives: to introduce the words for weather (sunny, cloudy, rainy, windy, snowy);
to introduce the song “What’s the weather?” (music by Clementine)
to practise the pronunciation of the sounds [] and []


STEP 1: First, put five flashcards with the pictures depicting weather in front of the blackboard: one of the flashcards has a sun above a tree (sunny); the second flashcard has the same tree but there are clouds above it (cloudy); the third flashcard also has the same tree but there are clouds over it and it is raining (rainy); the fourth flashcard also has the same tree but wind is blowing (windy); the last flashcard also has the same tree but it is covered with snow and it is snowing (snowy).
Say that it is winter now and it is cold, sometimes it snows and sometimes the sun shines. People are always interested to know what the weather is like today. The weather forecasters report what kind of weather will be today or tomorrow.
STEP 2: Then offer the pupils to learn a few words in order to know and talk about the weather. First, show the flashcard with the sun, and say that the sun is round and stands up above us. Ask the pupils to show the sun together with you. To do this, you need to raise and round your hands over your head. Here you should perfect the word “sunny”. Then show the flashcard with clouds. To show the cloudy weather, raise your hands and close the sky. Here perfect the word “cloudy”, and ask the pupils repeat the sound [] and the word after you in chorus and individually. To show the rainy weather, raise your hands with palms down and wiggle your fingers to mean rain. Perfect the word “rainy”. During the wind the branches of a tree (hands overhead) swing from side to side. Here perfect the word “windy”. And when it snows, beautiful snowflakes fall to the ground. Gently descend your hands from above your head, move your fingers to mean snowflakes. Say “snowy”, and ask the pupils repeat the sound [] and the word after you in chorus and individually
Work on all the words in chorus and individually with gestures. Then sing the song. Ask the children to show the weather together with you.
