Here at BusyTeacher we have created this section for seasonal activities which are further organized by month. Activities related to holidays and certain times of the year are posted in this part of the website. Currently there are 819 such worksheets available as well as some articles with a variety of lesson ideas. This spring worksheet here, for example, is for a simple craft activity perfect for beginning learners. The vocabulary words umbrella, flower, and rain or raindrop are all related to spring. Have students write the words on the back of the objects so that the final product, a mobile, can function as a study device and decoration. All of our materials are free and easy to print out so take a moment to find something for your students.
Activities like the ones included in this section are interesting because they relate to the time of year. This is nice because the topic is not arbitrary but relates directly to the students lives. Exercises about different seasons give students the opportunity to talk about things they enjoy doing. Additionally, lessons on holidays can be used either as cultural lessons where students learn about the practices of other cultures or as a chance for students to share their thoughts as well as learn some new, unique vocabulary. Seasonal activities can be a lot of fun and allow everyone to take a short break from the textbook material and focus on the world around them.
