This free seasons KS1 PDF resource features an engaging, hands-on activity that supports children in learning about the four seasons.
The printable, interactive disc helps children describe the characteristics of each season throughout the year.
The resource includes two discs for each season – a top disc and a bottom disc – that you cut out and assemble using a split pin. Once assembled, pupils can rotate the top disc, revealing a typical day from that season.
The activity is visually appealing, with colourful images and words that children can cut out and stick onto the correct top disc. These words help children describe the weather conditions typically associated with each season, such as “windy,” “warm,” “sunny,” and “icy.”
The tactile experience of assembling the disc and using the descriptive words enhances the learning process, making it both fun and educational.
