pages16leaves16Age7-11, 12-13ContributorsReview: Beatrice Deveaux, Translation: Paul ReadmanualRecommended Age (s):
8-11 years

Preparing the material:
All of the cards are meant to be laminated (recommended laminate thickness: 90-125 micron).
The individual cards need to be cut out.
Sides not to be laminated: templates
Sides or cards to be bound into a booklet: none

Teaching content:
The year cycle, names of the months and seasons, festivals and events

Possible Applications:
Individual work, pair work or small group work, for projects about the year and on the topic of time (especially the change from one season to the next)

Before you begin:
The year cycle is the base for the didactic concept of measuring time, and follows on directly from the topic of the Solar System. In the northern hemisphere, the complete cycle is laid out anticlockwise (the Earth circles the sun anticlockwise).

How to use:
The children lay out the pieces on a floor mat or on a table and complete the cycle.

Control of error:
The pieces are color coded to aid the children. They may also take a look at the photo of the complete cycle.

Additional information:
The diameter of the complete cycle is approximately 75 cm, and it can therefore be used as a substitute material for the 'Year Cycle Floor', which has a diameter of approximately 105 cm and is more suitable for group work. The table material is suited to free time and individual work, but can be given as a group activity if there is a lack of space. The material is designed for the children to work without requiring much guidance.pages16leaves16Age7-11, 12-13ContributorsReview: Beatrice Deveaux, Translation: Paul ReadmanualRecommended Age (s):
