课堂小结
What can we do in winter
Winter days are full of snow,
When trees and flowers forget to grow,
And the birds fly far away
To find a warm and sunny day.
The days of spring are windy and bright.
What a perfect time to fly a kite! ①
Bees and butterflies play among flowers, ②
Then hide from the April showers. ③
Seasons of the year
Then autumn leaves turn brown, ④
Fall into piles upon the ground.
Farmers work to harvest crops, ⑤
As the days are shorter and the temperature drops. ⑥
Soon the snowy season will begin,
And it will be a new year once again.
Those sweet memories of summer days
Are about quiet streams and trees and shade,
And lazy afternoons by a pool,
Eating ice cream to feel cool.
