The weather comes up in conversation all the time. These are the most common vocabulary words that I’ve used in class. I don’t have a card for thunder as it’s a sound. I usually just make a noise to show the difference which usually gets a good laugh. I’ve tried to included terms that are easy to use, most of which are adjectives. Some words like lightning don’t get used with an adjective form. In that case be sure to indicate to students that these words are nouns. Watch out for terms that look similar but are a bit different. EX: It’s rainy. (adjective) It’s raining. (verb) This can sometimes be a bit tricky as the pronunciation is also a little similar.


Using the worksheet

There are countless ways to use cards in classes. Games of memory, matching games, and games where kids run to the card or throw the card into a hat for a point. As long as you are active and fun and the kids are enjoying themselves you’re going to have a great time and they are too. Make sure you and your students say the words again and again and speak, make sentences so everyone can hear and say the sentences in context. You might try putting the cards on cubes to make them easy to throw around which is a great idea I got from a teacher recently.

Note: Kids have a way of destroying cards they get hold of, so after printing the cards you might want to laminate them and remember to round off the edges so no one gets a sharp card in the eye. If you do it well enough this opens up the usage of the cards for a few good games where you can flick or flip the cards to be more active.
