Seasons come to us
regularly. We have probably noticed that it gets warmer in summer or dry season
while it get colder in the winter or wet season. However do we know how these
seasons change?
Seasons happen and
change every year. This happens because the earth tilts back and forth as it
goes around the sun. During the summer, the earth tilts toward the sun. It
makes half of the earth hotter. this condition is what we call summer. During
the other half of the year, the earth tilts away from the sun. As a result, it
makes that half of the earth cooler. This cool condition is then what we call winter.
The different parts of
the world have the same season at different times. In the northern half of the
world , winter happens during the months of December, January and February. The
regions are such North America and Europe. In the other hand, the southern half
of the world have winter during the months of June, July and August.The regions
are like South America and Australia. How does this difference happen? The same
season happens at different times because the top and bottom halves of the
earth tilt away from the sun at different times.
