The Seasons Mix 'N' Match Cards

The Seasons Mix ’n’ Match Cards are an interactive language resource designed to support students in learning, recognising and confidently using season-related vocabulary in the target language through structured matching and retrieval practice.

This card set separates season images and written words, requiring students to actively match meaning to language. This process strengthens recognition, recall, and accurate use of seasonal vocabulary while encouraging hands-on engagement with the target language.

Designed for classroom teachers, specialist language teachers and homeschoolers, these cards function as an instructional tool that supports consolidation and active use of language already taught.
