[Free Resources] Spring Equinox Classroom Activities

The changing of the seasons provides lots of opportunities for learning! At the elementary level, seasons create a rich context for understanding weather, plant life and vegetation, as well as the solar system. These topics can be investigated in science lessons and discussed, read, and written about in reading and language arts units. As we approach the start of spring, check out our Spring Equinox Toolkit for free resources including a fact sheet, critical thinking activities, and a classroom poster to celebrate the seasonal shift.

With all the great topics that can be explored through a seasonal lens, let’s take a look at even more resources available to you and your students this spring:

Reading & Writing

• Spring books that share the best of the season
