Do you have to do geography? Is it going to be the type of thing where you're not sure when you'll be observed?

If you do know, I would pick a stronger lesson!

Couldn't you get them to present a TV weather report for their region after they have done some research, link to french with a few phrases eg ils pluirent (raining! can't remember! please correct!) then film them (if poss) so they can watch it back. Kids love role play and will have all seen weather reports, links to coastal and mountainous regions links to good understanding of how weather is different in different terrains etc.

re is reflecting on groups we belong to.

If you can't do the research, I can't see how you can do the lesson. Does that make sense?

RE sounds ok - start a new thread and we can help you plan that. I think that you need to be prepared if it could be any lesson!

Why not, if you have talked about typical weathers for different terrains such as sunny by the beach, snowy in the mountains, then you can discuss different regions in france and get them to make up what the weather would be like? eg In Nice this weekend it looks like glorious sunshine with the chance of cloud.

Maybe i could change objective which willnot need research linked to
Section 2: Where are hot and cold places located on a world map?
Children should learn:

to ask and respond to geographical questions
to recognise patterns
to use geographical vocabulary
about weather conditions around the world

View related activities and outcomes

Section 3: Where can we go on holiday? How will we get there?
