Step 1 What do you think is a symbol of a season? Why?

Step 2 Look outside the window. What's the weather like now? Do you like it? Why or why not?

Step 1 参考填写内容

Season	Feature(特征)
Spring	The sprouting green willow branches are the symbol of spring, because they turn soft and grow new tender buds as soon as the weather gets warm, which tells us spring has come.
Summer	The bright red blooming sunflower is the symbol of summer, because it grows most vigorously under the hot strong sunshine and always faces the sun, matching the hot and lively feature of summer.
Autumn	The golden fallen ginkgo leaves are the symbol of autumn, because they turn the whole ginkgo forest into warm golden yellow when autumn comes, and the cool wind will blow them to swirl on the ground, marking the arrival of harvest season.
Winter	The white fluffy snowflake is the symbol of winter, because it falls down only when the weather turns freezing cold, and wraps the whole world in a clean white coat, which is the most typical sign of winter.

Step 2 参考填写内容

Weather now	It is a mild sunny day, the wind is soft and the temperature is around 20℃.
Like or dislike	I like it very much.
Why or why not	Because the comfortable warm sunshine is not too hot at all, I can go out for a walk on the playground after class and enjoy the sweet smell of the osmanthus outside the teaching building, which makes me feel really relaxed.
