This document outlines a lesson plan to teach students about the four seasons over six sessions. Each session is divided into three activities and will last approximately 45 minutes. The sessions will cover: an introduction to all seasons; spring; summer; autumn; winter; and a mixed review session. Each activity lists the name, grouping method (individual, groups, or whole class), and estimated time. The lesson plan includes songs, videos, flashcards, discussions and games to engage students in learning about the characteristics of each season.

Shorter days, longer nights.
Plants and trees stop growing, when it’s
cold and snowing.
Stars are bright, chilly nights.

Safe and warm, safe and warm.”
