Wrapping up
During the week
- Raid the dressing up cupboard used for school plays and class assemblies and bring the outfits into the classroom for children to describe. You could bring in one a day – the more crazy and colourful the better! Encourage children to add details such as sparkly or spotted, checked or striped.
- Use the Presentation: J’aime, je n’aime pas and ask the children to describe the clothes in each of the pictures.
