emmajess Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Does anyone know of a story that goes through all the seasons? I want one to use in our class assembly and I can't think of one that goes through them all. Any songs about all the seasons? I'm a bit stuck for autumn and summer and would love one that included them all. We've talked a lot about seasonal change recently - the children have loads to say about it and have produced lovely artwork of all different sorts and some really imaginative dance, but I need something else for our assembly rather than the children just talking as its their first assembly and I know a number of them will be shy. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candy Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I don't know a story but I have just ordered some seasons books from Mindstretchers 'Look, look, look again...' They are beutiful and have lots of great images to discuss with the children Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 The Selfish Giant by Oscar Wilde may be a good one - certainly uses images of seasons in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquieL Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Out of the Ark has some lovely songs based on each season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I think 'The Scarecrow who didn't scare' goes through the seasons but don't quote me! That's just from vague memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 We love the book 'Listen, Listen" this goes through each season and back again so children really get the impression of the cycle - sorry cant't remember author Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I'll buy it anyway and do a part 2 to our assembly for parents at the end of the day one day next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
