About this resource

This 57-slide 'Seasons' PowerPoint takes children through the seasons, starting in summer and passing through autumn, winter and spring back to summer.

This PowerPoint aims to teach Science/geography through the natural, local environment as young children learn best when they can see/experience things for themselves.

What does the 'Seasons' PowerPoint teach?

Children will:

  • Learn what natural changes to plants and animals to look out for across the four seasons as well as changes we make, e.g. changes in activity and clothing

  • Learn that days change in length throughout the year

  • How the weather is affected by the seasons and the length of the day

  • How the changes in seasons affect what we wear and what we do

  • How plants and animals are affected by the seasons

  • Key vocabulary associated with the seasons

Special features of the 'Seasons' PowerPoint:

  • Bright photos and simple explanation makes it accessible to all abilities in the class and will engage even reluctant learners.

  • Simple text for children to read on each slide means that the Seasons PowerPoint can be used for guided reading.

  • More information is provided for the teacher to read, if desired, in PDF form or under each slide.

  • Animated: All animations occur automatically.

How can the Seasons PowerPoint be used?

Some ideas:

  1. It can be viewed as one longer PowerPoint, or split into individual seasons, watching one part at a time or each season.

  2. As part of a project on seasons, summer, autumn, winter or spring

  3. To revise and consolidate work done on seasonal changes

  4. To introduce a new project on seasons to the class
