Lesson Summary
In this activity students explore the use of four seasons as a way of describing the annual changes in climate. Students begin this activity by brainstorming typical associations with the seasons. They then investigate Indigenous interpretations of seasonal change using the Bureau of Meteorology website, and then work in groups to create their own new seasons according to what they have experienced in their area.
