Lesson Overview

This A1 ESL lesson explores the topic “How’s the Weather?”, helping students talk about different types of weather, seasons, and everyday weather experiences using simple, natural English.

Learners practise describing the weather in their city and around the world, using vocabulary such as sunny, rainy, cloudy, windy, snowy, hot, and cold. They also discuss weather preferences, clothing, outdoor activities, and what people do in different weather conditions.

Through picture activities, listening practice, “This or That” games, and speaking discussions, students build confidence describing weather and sharing simple personal experiences with classmates.
