ARBs with spring and summer themes - November 2015

Kia ora koutou

Spring is now well upon us.

We’ve put together a list of ARBs with spring and summer themes.

You will need to be logged in to view the resources (don't have a teacher login? register)

For those of you with your feet in spring,

germinating seeds, life cycles, etc, may be your thing.

And

For those of you leaping into summer,

water safety, the beach, etc, may be sunnier.

As A. A. Milne wrote in When We Were Very Young,

‘She turned to the sunlight

And shook her yellow head,

And whispered to her neighbour:

"Winter is dead”.’
