Lesson Start: Exploring Clothes in French!

🌟 Welcome to Our French Adventure! 🌟

Objective: To introduce vocabulary related to clothes in an engaging and interactive way.

Introduction (5 minutes):
- Begin by welcoming the students to the lesson.
- Share that today, they will learn about les vêtements (clothes) in French!
- Ask them if they can name any clothes they wear. As they respond, write a few examples on the board in English.
Activity Setup (5 minutes):
- Show the colourful bag to the class and explain that it contains different clothing items.
- Tell them that each item is going to help them learn new French words!
What's in the Bag? (15 minutes):
- One by one, take out each clothing item or flashcard from the bag.
- As you pull out an item, hold it up and say the name in French, for example, "un chapeau" for a hat, "une chemise" for a shirt, and "des chaussures" for shoes.
- Encourage the class to repeat after you. For example:
  - "Repeat after me: un chapeau!"
  - "Fantastic! Now let's say it together: un chapeau!"
Mirror Time (5 minutes):
- Hand out small mirrors to each student.
- Invite them to look in the mirror and describe what they are wearing using the new French words they’ve learned. For example, "Je porte un t-shirt" (I am wearing a t-shirt).
- Encourage them to be creative and describe as many items as possible.
Wrap Up (5 minutes):
- Finish the activity by bringing all the students back together.
- Ask them to share their favourite piece of clothing in French.
- Reinforce the new vocabulary by writing it on the board once again for visual recall.

After the activity, explain that now they will dive deeper into the world of clothes in French, learning how to describe what they and others wear in sentences!
