Reasons For Seasons
By Bailey Tompkins
Earths seasons/positions
Earth has seasons because of earth revolution around the sun ,which takes 365.25 days for one revolution. Another thing that causes seasons is Earth's tilt. seasons occur in curtain position earth is in during the revolution.the Sean's in the specific positions are shown above
Earth's tilt
As I said before earth causes season.earths tilt is 23.5 degrees. The Tilt away from the sun cause colder seasons. When the sun is closer to the tilt it's the hotter seasons. For example a light is going to be brighter if you are close to what you are shinning the light on, it also is brighter if you point the light straight. So more direct light makes it hotter, and with earths tilt earth doesn't get as hot.
The sun
The sun is the center of our solar system.planets, comets, meteors, moons orbit around the sun. The force keeping these things orbiting around the sun is gravity.The Sun contains 99.86 percent of the Solar System's known mass.
This is earth
Earth is split up into 2 parts. A top and a bottom. The top part of the earth is the Northern hemisphere and the bottom is the Southern Hemisphere. If the Southern Hemisphere is cold the northern hemisphere is hot. They are opposites.
The equator
As I said earlier the earth is in two sections. Some of you might ask, what separates both half's? Well that's the equator.the equator isn't like the northern and Southern Hemispheres. The equator doesn't have the same seasons. Instead they have wet and dry seasons.aThis is because the equator is very hot, causing hot weather.
Earth orbits?
Earth orbits around the sun counter clockwise
Seasons
The norther and Southern Hemisphere go through different seasons at different times. When is it winer in the northern hemisphere? Well what about the Southern Hemisphere? We'll this picture blow is going to show you what position earth is in when both hemispheres receive a different season.
