Posted by Signs of the Spring Season PowerPoint Presentation
This PowerPoint presentation explains the spring season in simple terms using real, full-color photographs. Children will learn when the spring season occurs, the vernal equinox, what you see during the spring, what plants need to grow, and more. The last slide tests their understanding by having students choose signs of spring. When a picture is clicked a smiley face correct symbol or an unhappy face “try again” symbol is shown giving students immediate feedback.
