Our 'Signs of Autumn' Colouring Activity Posters are incredibly versatile and can be used in a multitude of ways across various early years and KS1 environments:
Creative Art Session:
Provide a selection of colouring tools and encourage children to choose a poster to colour. This is a great way to develop their fine motor skills and creativity.
Display & Visual Reminder:
Once coloured, the posters can be used to create a beautiful and informative autumn display. They can be placed alongside your children's written work or other autumn-themed creations to showcase their learning.
Communication and Language:
The posters are a great stimulus for conversation. You can use them to ask a variety of questions, encouraging children to talk about the changes they see in the natural world.
Outdoor Activity Prompt:
Take the posters outside with you as a checklist. Challenge children to see how many of the signs of autumn they can find in the outdoor area, then come back and colour them in.
Vocabulary Development:
As you talk about the posters, you can introduce new words like 'sycamore seeds', 'fungus', and 'blackberries'.
