Seasonal changes
Observe changes across the four seasons and describe weather associated with each season, including how day length varies
What a learner can do afterwards
- Name the four seasons and describe typical weather for each
- Describe how day length changes through the year (longer in summer, shorter in winter)
- Give examples of changes in the natural world associated with each season (e.g. leaves, flowers, animal behaviour)
The lesson
Every year has four seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter. Each one brings different weather.
Try it together
In fall, leaves turn orange and drop from trees. Squirrels gather nuts to store for winter.
Good to know
Look outside to guess the season. Snow means winter, and blooming flowers mean spring.
Four seasons repeat each year, each with its own weather and daylight.
Watch it

Then practise
8 questions wait behind this lesson, each with its answer explained. Every answer feeds the sky: stars light as they are learned, and dim when it is time to come back.
