Seasons and verbs for ESL

In many books it is under the label of Seasonal Activities. This is the last blog post related to the Seasons Unit. I have posted Seasons and Months, Seasons and Weather, Seasons and Clothes, Seasons and Nature. Just continue scrolling the blog posts to check them out! Everything is under one product:
https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Seasons-Theme-Resources-for-Elementary-ESL-1744981

It is also available here:https://www.bilingualmarketplace.com/products/seasons-unit-for-elementary-esl?variant=37168505684132

 There are many verbs related to each Season. First, here are the flashcards.


Sort the Flashcards into Seasons on the blackboard.
Teacher: What season is this?
Students: It is Winter.
Teacher: What is he doing?
Students: He is building a snowman.

Place each Season Flashcard on the blackboard. Have the students look into all the flashcards and find the Activities(Verbs) that can be done in each Season.
Teacher: What season is this?
Students: It is Fall.
Teacher: What do we do in the Fall?
Students: Play with the leaves, sit on the pumpkins, rake the leaves, and walk.


                                    Do the same with the other Seasons.


You can use many Verb Tenses with the flashcards. Start with CAN. Use the flashcards to model questions and sentences on the board.

                                        Or model Present Continuous.

                 Or you can introduce the simple past tense questions.
                                     Maybe you can review the future.

As in all the Seasons Units, there is a Sorting Worksheet.

And just two worksheets.
Students complete the worksheet. Then have them cut each picture and glue next to the sentences on their notebooks.

The other worksheet will be used as a BINGO template as well. Using either the colored flashcards placed on the board or the small cards used for the sorting, students write the activities that can be done and the ones that can’t be done in each Season, completing the worksheet in an allotted amount of time, maybe 5 minutes. Some students will have more verbs than others, but that is the idea. Then, announce the BINGO! Use the colored flashcards to call the Verbs. The students will cross out the verb word if they have it written down. The winner is the first one to cross out all the words.

Seasons and Clothes

This is the third part for the Seasons Product. LINK:https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Seasons-Theme-Resources-for-Elementary-ESL-1744981
seasons and clothes worksheet

It is also available here:

https://www.bilingualmarketplace.com/products/seasons-unit-for-elementary-esl?variant=37168505684132



 Start by reviewing all the clothes vocabulary using the flashcards provided.


Have the students sort the people flashcards into each season.
Teacher: What season is this ?
Students: SPRING!
Teacher: What is she wearing ?
Students: a t-shirt, a skirt and rain boots.
Teacher: What is this ?
Students: It’s an umbrella.
Teacher: When do you wear a scarf ?
Students: In the Winter.
Teacher: What do you wear in the Spring ?
Students: A raincoat.
                                            Clothes Flashcards:
Have the students sort all the clothes flashcards into each season.

Have the students sort the clothes out on the worksheet.
And sort out along with the weather and Months cutouts from last blog post using the fries containers.
Worksheets! The frogs again, but this time Seasons and Clothes.
This is how students should complete the worksheets.
But, that’s not all, have the students cut and paste the frogs on their notebooks. Then, write sentences according to their level.
I put all the notebook writing together into a book!
I made it all into a video.

This is the second worksheet for the reading ring that I presented last blog post. The students color the worksheet and then cut the strips and place it in the book ring.
An extra worksheet.
Have the students create a Venn Diagram. Students work in pairs. Assign each student a Season in which they will write about the clothes that are worn on their side of the Venn Diagram. And they write in the center of the Venn Diagram the clothes that are common for both seasons. They will have to discuss on the clothes that are common and the ones that are not. Assign different combination of Seasons.
Winter-Fall, Winter-Spring, Winter-Summer, Fall-Spring, Fall-Summer, Spring-Summer. Have the students present the results to the class.
There are the four Seasons Scenes for the students to complete the weather and dressing the child that will be pasted there. 
Included are the symbols of each season. It can be done as a group work. The students can write a text or do a show and tell about their season.
After the Seasons Scenes are reading, students can do free writing and create a poster.

These are games that you can play with the Seasons Unit or any other.
Word chain. Write a Season word on the board, e.g. Summer. Then the students have to say a word with the last letter of the word Summer, e.g. rain. This is a good warm up activity.
Spelling Game
Put a Season flashcard on the board and have teams or individuals make as many words as possible from those letters, e.g. Spring = S/sun, P/pants, R/rain, ,I/I, N/November, G/gloves.
Then, students write sentences using those words.


There is another part for this resource: Seasons Nature and more Vocabulary.

When is your birthday? How old are you-part 3

Here is the link to the product from the last three blog posts related to the Birthday unit/How old are you ?.
Review the months of the year using the cards. Review with your students: How many days in each month ?

months of the year using the cards
 
I see that some book’s scope and sequence have the structure using only the birthday month. Have a student come to the front and pick the card of the month of their birthday.
Teacher: When’s your birthday?
Student: June.
Teacher: It’s in June. (Stress the word IN and write it on the board. Grab the month card of June and place it next to the word in)

Graph the birthday months of your class. Place the months of the year around your classroom. Have the students look for the Month of their Birthday and stand there.
Teacher: This is January. How many students have their birthday in January?
Students: one!
Continue with all the months.

Depending on the level of your students and the scope and sequence of your book, continue introducing the birthday date. But first, review all the ordinal numbers using the cards.
I prepared a worksheet for the students to notice the difference in writing the ordinal numbers.
Have the students match the ordinal number cards and the words cards as a review.

Then, let’s move on to the birthday date. Place the month and date of your birthday on the board and model for the class. Write the word ON.
Teacher: My birthday is on August 29th.
Have the students find their birthday month cards and say their sentence to the class.
Have the students write their birthdate on a piece of paper.
As you place the month cards around the classroom. At your signal have the students stand up and look for their birth month and stand there.  Hand them their birthday ordinal number.
Calendar. I am adding a perpetual calendar template . I  can customize the headings to adjust to the country you are at, send me an email: ei98srl@gmail.com)
Students can help create the calendar, just glue the proper heading and have the students research the days and complete the template.
Ask questions:
Teacher: When is Sara’s birthday?
Students: It on October 20th.
 Students write their name in the birthday date box.
More flashcards. I thought that extra practice is required for this structure. I made some children flashcards with birthdates.
Teacher: When is his birthday?
Students: It’s on June 28th.

Here is the complete set.

Worksheets!
Worksheet 1 Questionnaire. Students walk around the classroom asking the questions and writing the answers.
Then, they cut and glue the worksheet on their notebooks and write sentences about the results of the questionnaire.
Worksheet 2. Dictate how to color each month as a listening exercise.
Teacher: Color June pink!
Have the students trace the date you say.
Teacher: April 11th!
Students complete their worksheet. Then, have the students cut each box and write a sentence.
Worksheet 3. Make a calendar. Each worksheet has an empty space for the month. Students cut the month of their birthday and glue onto the empty space. They also write the days of the month and their name on their birthdate. Finally, complete the sentences. You can do a show and tell to the class.
Worksheet 4. The same as the other worksheet, dictate the color of each month or even better, have an individual student dictate the color of each month. Then, students write sentences using his or her birthday.
Worksheet 5. There are Birthdays in the family!Students cut out and glue all the family members and write their corresponding birthdays on their notebooks.
I made an extra set of Family Birthday flashcards to review.
Worksheet 6. Ordinal Numbers Bingo. Students write any of the 31 ordinal numbers on the 9 squares. Use the Ordinal numbers cards to call BINGO!
Worksheet 7. More Family review. Students draw or cut out pictures of their family members and complete the worksheet.
