Learn the four seasons with 70 printable clip cards featuring real-life photos of nature, weather, animals, children and seasonal events.

Help children learn to identify the four seasons using real-life photographs instead of illustrations. These printable clip cards encourage students to observe seasonal clues in nature, weather, clothing, animals, food, and everyday life while developing vocabulary and classification skills.

Children look at each photograph, decide which season it represents, and choose the correct answer using a clothespin, dry-erase marker, or counters. The use of authentic photographs helps children make meaningful connections between classroom learning and the world around them.

This resource is ideal for preschool, kindergarten, Year 1, ESL learners, speech and language activities, special education, independent learning, and homeschool.
