The four seasons of the year summer, fall, winter, and spring.  Living in sunny Florida  the subject of seasons is hard for our students to comprehend.  They associate the seasons more with holidays.  Their fall is Halloween, winter is Christmas or Hanukah, Spring is Easter or Passover, and summer is 4th of July or just plain summer vacation time or possibly camp.  We can talk about the leaves changing or the flowers blooming,  how it snows and people making snowmen but really does that happen or is it all "make-believe."
