The Seasons on Earth
Activity
A season is a division of the year, marked by changes in weather
Seasons result from the yearly revolution of the Earth around the Sun
and the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to the plane of revolution.
During June, July and August, the northern hemisphere is exposed to more direct sunlight because the hemisphere faces the sun. The same is true of the southern hemisphere in December, January, and February. It is the tilt of the Earth that causes the Sun to be higher in the sky during the summer months which increases the solar flux
