From our teachers' playbook

Snowflakes, sunshine and falling leaves

What do kindergartners learn about seasons?

Kindergartners learn the four seasons in order: spring, summer, fall and winter, and that they repeat every year. They notice what changes: the weather, what we wear, what trees and animals do. Leaves change color and fall in autumn, snow can come in winter, flowers bloom in spring. Kids sort clothes and activities by season and talk about the weather outside each day. The click comes when a child looks out the window and announces, "The leaves are falling, so it's fall!"

Our favorite ways to teach seasons

Seasons are all around us, so we watch, sing and sort our way through them.

Sing the cycle

A seasons song gives kids the order in one catchy tune. Sing it at calendar time and have four kids hold up season pictures as each one comes up. Then mix up the pictures and let the class fix the order.

Why it works: words set to a repeating melody are easier to recall than the same words spoken (Wallace, 1994).

Watch one tree all year

Pick a tree outside your window and draw it together each season. Talk about what changed and why. One familiar tree makes the cycle real for five-year-olds in a way pictures can't.

Why it works: showing first, practicing together, then letting kids try alone is the "gradual release" model teachers have relied on for decades (Pearson and Gallagher, 1983).

Dress for the season

Kids sort clothing pictures into the four seasons: mittens, swimsuit, raincoat, sweater. Then they draw themselves dressed for today's weather. Connecting seasons to their own life is what makes it stick.

Why it works: the U.S. Department of Education's guide for teaching elementary math recommends moving from hands-on objects to drawings to numbers.

Questions parents and teachers ask

What do kindergartners learn about seasons?

They learn the names and order of the four seasons and how weather, clothing, plants and animals change in each. Daily weather talk is a big part of it.

How do I explain the seasons to a 5-year-old?

Keep it simple and visible: in summer it's warm and sunny, in winter it's cold. Point out changes outside, like leaves or flowers. The science of Earth's tilt can wait until later grades.

What order do the seasons go in?

Spring, summer, fall (autumn) and winter, and then it starts over. Some kids like to start with the season of their birthday.

What are fun seasons activities for kindergarten?

Seasons songs, sorting clothes by season, nature walks, a tree journal and simple weather graphs are all great. Let kids collect leaves, pinecones or flowers as they change.
