Every season is special. Listen to this poem about what makes each season different.
Do the preparation task first. Then listen to the poem and do the activities.
Buds and shoots are pushing up
Flowers opening to the sun
Bright green freshness everywhere
Lambs and ducklings having fun
Kites are flying on the wind
Sudden showers make us run.
These are things that tell us when
Spring’s here again.
Days that last a long, long time
Children swimming in the sea
Ice cream in the hot bright sun
Shining leaves on every tree
There’s no school so every day
All my friends can play with me.
Summer’s here again.
Leaves are falling on the ground
All the trees drop their disguise
Squirrels gather up their nuts
Sleepy creatures close their eyes
Days are short: afternoons and
Mornings have much darker skies.
Autumn’s here again.
Stars like snowflakes in the sky
Robins sit on leafless trees
All the children wish for snow
Waiting for the lakes to freeze
Cheeks and noses turn bright red
Many people start to sneeze.
These are things which tell us when
Winter’s here again.

I like the poem. My favorite season is summer I was born in summer the exact week after pay day so I am so going to have the best time ever at the beach and in the park and in the zoo and in the bird park.
