How animals are affected (DoBE, 2022:17).
How people are affected, example: what we eat, wear do, games we play (DoBE, 2022:17).
During Autumn we can expect light showers of rain accompanied by heavy clouds as the temperature drop, because we are getting ready for Winter (Twinkl,2024).
The leaves of the trees change colours, plants stop producing food, the days become days shorter, and the nights become longer (Study.com, 2022).
Animals begin to gather food and prepare for hibernation of the cold long months, some animals such as bears eat extra food to build up fat to keep them warm (Study.com, 2022).
During Autumn we begin slowly but surely to wear winter clothes such as long sleeves and jackets, we begin to eat warm meals such as beef stew and eat fruits like apples and pears, we also play games such as scavenger hunting and go laser tagging.
During Autumn we use personal safety devices to introduce wearable alarms and safety whistles as light reduce, because of the season's changes and challenges
A weather monitor is crucial during Autumn as it helps to prepare for potential hazards.
The learners will discuss the weather during Autumn that will develop their communication and language development.
The learners will collect the different colour leaves that has fallen from the trees.
The learners will match cards of animals and their hibernation spots.
The learners will have to bring at least one object related to Autumn such as the clothes we wear, food we eat and games we play the learners will then discuss their object and place it in the theme table.
The learners will participate in a weather symbol matching activity, the activity requires them to match the weather symbols with corresponding pictures.
The learners will create a safety device using paper and cardboard.
