What causes the seasons?

What causes the seasons?

Seasons happen throughout the year & include Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer.

In Autumn the leaves come of. In Winter some of the country's snow. Sometimes it snows in Christchurch. Next we have Spring. Spring makes stuff grows. Like flowers and trees. At last we have Summer. Summer is when we have some sun and it make living things
grow.

These seasons happen because of the earth axis. The earth is on a tilt. If the earth wasn’t on a tilt there won't be any seasons. It will be summer forever. This is what earth looks like on its axis.

  1. Great explanation Loto, you clearly understand what causes seasons. One thing though, that's an American diagram, and America is in the Northern Hemisphere. So on the left, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere and Summer here in NZ (the southern hemisphere).
