Cycle of the Seasons (Instructional Master 6B-1)



  • Arrange and display Image Cards 2–5 so that they represent the cycle
    of the seasons as it is depicted on Instructional Master 6B-1. Remind
    students that a cycle is something that happens, in the same order,
    over and over again.

  • Ask students to identify the cycle of the seasons and name each
    season in the order it appears in the cycle.

  • Tell students that they are going to make their own cycle of the
    seasons. Distribute Instructional Master 6B-1 to each student.

  • Have students identify the season for each of the symbols on
    Instructional Master 6B-1. (The snowflake represents winter, the
    flower represents spring, etc.)

  • Distribute scissors and glue or tape and have students follow your
    instructions on how to create the cycle of seasons:

    • First, cut along the dashed line directly above the season pictures.

    • Next, cut out each season picture separately.

    • Then paste each season picture in the correct box, beginning
      with the first season in the cycle of the seasons in the box labeled
      number one.



  • If time permits, have students share their cycle to their small group
    or home language peers. Students should say the seasons as they
    progress—naming the season that comes after winter, and so on, until
    they reach winter again.


Domain-Related Trade Book



  • Refer to the list of recommended trade books in Introduction and
    choose a fiction story related to the seasons to read aloud to the
    class.
