Lesson flow
Children freeze into season poses (shivering for winter, fanning for summer), sing season songs learning weather associations, and watch a Lazy Bear story discussing what happens in winter. The second lesson roleplays seasonal activities with props like umbrellas and sunglasses, builds a Four Seasons Tree craft labelling each season, and shares a favourite season with the class.
