The Seasons - Presentation
Science Resource Description
The Seasons presentation is an engaging learning resource that aims to deepen students' understanding of the cyclical nature of the year. It starts with foundational questions, prompting learners to identify the four distinct seasons, describe characteristic seasonal activities, and choose appropriate attire for each period. The presentation offers a practical approach to learning, with questions like "At what time of year can you build a snowman?" and "Why do you need to put a coat on in the winter?" These inquiries encourage students to connect their personal experiences with seasonal patterns and the resulting changes in weather and environment.
Further interactive elements include a song about a snowman linked to a video, and a rhyme that succinctly captures the essence of each season—coats in winter, planting in spring, swimming in summer, and schooling in autumn. The lesson also includes a "Season Card Game" to match seasons with descriptive words and a group activity where students illustrate how a tree changes throughout the year. The session concludes with a series of reflective questions designed to consolidate the knowledge gained, such as naming the seasons, associating them with specific months, and describing the changes they bring. This educational approach ensures that students not only learn about the seasons but also understand their impact on the world around them.
