Seasons and Weather: Supplemental Guide 2A | Winter 39

Introducing the Read-Aloud 15 minutes


What Have We Learned?



  • Remind students that yesterday they heard a letter from their
    imaginary pen pal, Annie.
    Ask students: “What did we learn from Annie’s letter?”

    • We learned that there are four seasons in a year, and each season has
      different weather.

  • Point to each season as you say it. Then have students say the
    seasons with you.
    Reinforce that the cycle of the seasons is winter, spring, summer,
    autumn.
    The Cycle of the Seasons

  • Tell students that they are going to practice more with the cycle of the
    seasons.

  • Explain that they will each have a Seasons Card with one of the
    seasons on it. Tape one of the Season Cards on the front of each
    student in random order.

  • Tell students: “Turn to the person next to you and tell them what your
    season is. Say: ‘My season is .’”

  • Have students stand in one area of the room. Tell them that they are
    going to make a circle to represent the cycle of the seasons and that
    the cycle begins with winter. Invite a student wearing a winter card to
    take the first spot.

  • Invite a student who is wearing a spring card to take the next spot in
    the circle. Continue in this fashion until you have completed the circle.
    If the cycle ends unevenly (the total number of students is not divisible
    by four) have the remaining students stand together with a student
    wearing the same season card as they are wearing.
