I bring in a fan and turn it on at different levels so they can feel it blowing slow, medium, and fast. We read stories about the wind while the fan is blowing. We gather several items from our classroom to see if they blow in the wind. Door Hangers: We use the saying, "March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb." On one side of the door hanger, we make the head of a lion: A circle is the face, then children wrap strips of paper around a crayon to make them curl, then glue the curls around the lion face. The other side of the hanger is the lamb: We glue cotton balls to a black circle for the head and add black rectangles for legs.
