Are you looking for new ways to help students understand the causes and characteristics of the seasons of the year? Don’t get to experience all 4 seasons where you live? No problem! With these activities, we can teach kids to:
identify characteristics of each season

Weather and seasons go hand in hand. Make sure to read Weather Anchor Charts and Activities for Kids.
Understanding Characteristics of Each Season
Introduce the characteristics of each season with fun and colorful season anchor charts. Students can use the interactive notebook pages to illustrate what they learn about each season. They can refer to the pages throughout the year.
Season Flap Book

Spring
The weather is warmer during spring. It can rain or storm. You can wear rain boots and a rain jacket.

Seasonal Clothing Activities
We can help our students foster a sense of independence by teaching them how to dress appropriately for each season. Students will look at each picture and determine the correct season. They will glue each picture under the correct season.
Guess the Season Game
Students can continue practicing their season identification skills with a whole group game called Guess the Season. Students will incorporate their nonfiction text feature skills to help them guess what season is shown in a close up picture. The highlight of the game is when students get to see if their answers are correct!
