This preschool science lesson is designed to introduce students to the four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—and explore the associated weather changes. The lesson begins with a discussion where students share their knowledge and experiences related to each season, fostering engagement and observational skills.
Next, participants will sort seasonal picture cards, identifying characteristics and activities linked to each season. Following this, the students will engage in an art activity where they create scenes representing their favorite seasons using various materials, such as crayons and cotton balls. This hands-on approach allows them to express their creativity while reinforcing their understanding of seasonal weather changes.
The lesson concludes with a circle time reflection, providing students an opportunity to share their artwork and thoughts about the seasons. A fun farewell song related to the seasons will wrap up the session. Assessment will focus on participation, creativity in the art project, and understanding demonstrated during discussions. Extensions may include nature walks to observe local weather patterns and maintaining a classroom weather chart.
