Morning Circle:
Ask the children if they know what time of year
comes after winter. When they answer "spring,"
explain that spring is one of our seasons. Ask them
if they know the beginning sound in "spring." Show
them the word "spring" and highlight the letter "s."
Name the seasons with the children using the
following rhyme:
"I can name the seasons,
there are four of them in all.
Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall.
I know God made them all." (lesson plan author)

Do the children hear any other "s" words ("summer,"
"seasons?") Explain that God made our seasons
for a very special purpose. Ask the children if they
can tell a few things that happen in each of the four
seasons. They might say that in summer it gets hot
and they go to the beach, in fall the leaves turn
colorful and they have lots of raking to do, and in
winter Christmas happens and it gets colder. (What
"s" word happens in the winter? ..."snow.") In spring
new leaves sprout from the trees, flowers begin to
bloom, and the weather starts to warm up. Explain
that spring is a time for new beginnings, a time
when things that looked dead spring to life again.

scenes from all four seasons. Place four cards,
each with the name of a season (and a picture
representing that season,) in a row on a table.

and separate into columns according to seasons.

Seasons Sensory Center
Provide a variety of objects for the children to
explore that demonstrate various aspects of the four
seasons. For example, a metal pan full of ice cubes
and some tongs could be a tactile way to experience
winter. Allowing the children to cut off snippets of a
lavender plant would provide a sense of the smell of
spring. A recording of beach sounds to listen to with
headphones would be an auditory method for
experiencing summer. A pile of dead leaves in a
large plastic tub could provide a kinesthetic means of
sensing fall.

| Cherry Trees Soak popped popcorn in weak red food coloring until pink. Soak puffed wheat or crisped rice cereal in weak green food coloring until light green. Allow to dry. Give each child a sheet of approx. 9" x 12" poster board or foam core. Help each child paint a tree and branch shape on their "canvas" with brown tempera paint. When dry, help them dot glue randomly over the branches and stick the popcorn and cereal "blooms" and "leaves" on their creations. |

Take a nature walk:
Observe with patience all the things in your environment. Watch for
animals, search for a nest, turn over rocks to reveal bugs, smell earth
and leaves, listen to the wind blow through the trees. Discuss how this
environment looks in all the different seasons. For extra fun, wrap a
small piece of tape around the wrist of your children (sticky side up) As
you walk allow them to collect interesting objects they can stick to their
tape.
