Activity overview

This seasons activity pack uses spring, summer, fall, and winter words for large-print sorting, matching, and conversation. It is a flexible topic for mixed groups because participants can answer with weather, colors, holidays, clothing, or favorite times of year.

Large-print notes

  • Use clear seasonal category headings with wide spacing.
  • Offer choices between spring, summer, fall, and winter.
  • Let participants answer with color, weather, clothing, food, or memory words.
  • Avoid assuming every participant enjoys the same season.
