Spring has Sprung! 🌷

Introduction: A Fun Spring Surprise! 🎉

Good morning, first graders! Today we are going to embark on an exciting journey into the wonderful world of spring! But before we dive into our lesson, let’s start with a fun surprise!

Spring Mystery Box 🎁

What You Need:

• A mystery box or bag (you can use a any container)
• A few spring-themed items (like a flower, a butterfly toy, a raindrop craft, or a small picture of a sunny day)

How to Begin:

1. Show the Mystery Box: Place the mystery box on your desk and let the students see it without revealing what’s inside.

2. Build Curiosity: Tell them that you have collected some special items that remind us of spring. Ask if they can guess what’s inside based on clues about the season!

3. Give Clues: Say things like:

   • "This item comes from the ground and helps plants grow!" (Hold up a small flower)
   • "You can see this fluttering in the sky when it’s warm!" (Hold up a butterfly toy)
   • "Sometimes, this falls from the sky to help plants drink!" (Hold up a raindrop craft)

4. Invitation to Guess: Allow students to raise their hands and share their guesses. This encourages participation and creates excitement about the topic.

Transition to the Lesson

After revealing the items, discuss briefly what they represent in Spring. You can say something like, "Spring is a time when flowers bloom, butterflies fly, and the rain helps our gardens grow. Today, we’re going to learn all about the magic of spring through stories, songs, and activities!"

Conclusion

Now that we've warmed up to our spring theme, let’s get started with our fun spring activities! Are you ready, class? Let’s hop into spring together! 🐰🌼
