Four Seasons Window

In this kindergarten through 2nd grade lesson we got to create our very own four season’s window. The lesson started with a discussion on the four different seasons (winter, summer, fall, and spring) and different things we relate to these seasons. Example: snow with winter; flowers with spring, leaves with fall, and sun with summer. We were than given four different pieces of an empty tree. We got to use water color to paint the background in colors that reminded us of each season. Than we could use different medias to add to the different seasons such as crayons, markers, paper, paint, cotton balls, glitter, ect…) We used scrunched up paper to create buds on the trees and red paint to create apples. Cotton balls were used to represent the snow and little pieces of paper to represent fall leaves. This was a fun project and the final project I was very pleased with.

Extension: For science class you could have a discussion on the different seasons and changes that occur in each one. Discuss how snow is formed or what creates rain. This could also be used for a creative writing assignment for Language Arts. Students could write a story for each season and possible even create a book.
