**French Open Evening Resources **
**Make your own French Passport **
Set up a passport making station in your classroom with the sign. You will need a few student helpers, pens/pencils, the instruction sheet and plenty of copies of the passport template, ready folded into a little book. You might want a tape measure too as not many know how tall they are.
Once they have finished, you or your student helpers can stamp their new passport (if you have a stamp)
**Make your own French Weather Vane **
Set up a Weather Vane making station in your classroom with the sign. You will need a few student helpers, pens/pencils, brass fasteners, the instruction sheet and plenty of copies of the weather vane template and cut out arrows. Student helpers help your visitors to copy the correct French phrase onto their weather vane. They can also help them to assemble it with the brass fastener and arrow in the middle.
