✍️French A1.1 – Fill in the blanks
French Fill-in-the-Blanks Worksheets A1
Two printable fill-in-the-blanks worksheets for beginner French learners: la météo (the weather) and la poste et le courrier (the post office). Each page opens with a word bank, then nine or eight cursive sentences to complete.
Students read the sentence, choose the right word from the box and write it in the blank: a simple routine that builds vocabulary, spelling and cursive reading at the same time.
Free: la météo
Premium: la posteExplore the collection
The weather worksheet is free and works as a gentle entry point for beginners. The post office worksheet is premium, with the same word-bank routine on a richer everyday situation.
1. Free – Fill in the Blanks: The Weather (La météo)
This free worksheet follows the year season by season: when each season starts, the July heat, April showers, March hail and the long June evenings. Students pick from a 13-word list (automne, averses, chaud, été, grêle, hiver, journées, neige, nuageux, printemps, températures, vacances, vent) and write each word in the matching sentence.
The cursive handwriting also makes it a gentle reading task: students decode the sentence first, then write. A good fit for the first months of French.

2. Premium – At the Post Office (La poste et le courrier)
Eight short exchanges at the post office: posting a letter, buying stamps, a parcel that arrived this morning, a closed office and a very urgent courier. Students complete each line with words from the box (bureau, ça fera, colis, fermé, guichet, maison, matin, poster, soeur, timbres, urgent).
Because the sentences sound like real counter conversations, the worksheet is also a nice starting point for a role play: one student is the clerk, the other the customer.
