We have seasons out of how the sun turns toward the sun. If it was away from us, it would be cold. it also depends on how close the world is to the sun.

emile w said...

The seasons are determined by how much the earth is tilted and where you are on earth. The farther you are from the direct point that the sun hits the colder it will be, but if you are closer you will be hotter.

Alexis F. said...

The tilt of the earth to sun move and one part of the sun hits the earth and then it makes summer.

Nate B. said...

We have seasons because the earth is tilted as it makes its yearly journey around the sun.

jasmine M. said...

The seasons are caused by earths tilt on its axis.

Rhiannon J said...

We have seasons because the earth is tilted 23.5 degrees and turns.

Brian B said...

We have seasons because the earth is always rotating and and there are 4 seasons and 4 stops were the seasons start.

kaylee m. said...

We have seasons because when the earth the moves the sun gets either close are far away from the earth so when the sun is close its summer and when the sun is faraway it is winter.

The seasons are caused by Earth's tilt. If the sun's rays are hitting the southern hemisphere it is winter. If they are hitting the northern hemisphere, it is summer. While the Earth rotates around the Sun, it spins 23.4 degrees on its axis, causing the 12 months and 4 seasons.

Jewel C said...

we have seasons because of the earths tilt. so when the earths tilt is up then its winter in north America and all the countrys northern.

Aleha C :D said...

we have them, becaues the earth spins/rotates.

molly m said...

The seasons are caused by earths tilt.When the earth is spinning around the sun and the sun hits the southern half of the world,the sun also hits the northern side but it is tilted away.

Nicole c. said...

The seasons are caused by Earth's tilt and Earth's axis. We have seasons because earths tilt is 23.5 degrees.

Kyle M2 said...

We have seasons when the Earth tilts.

Dominique F. said...

We have seasons because of the way the earth tilts. One part of the earth is cold and the other is hot.

Sarah L said...

the seasons change because of earths tilt which tilts 23.5 degrees and when its winter there little sun on the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere its all sunny then it changes because it rotates and in all earth changes because of earths tilt

Serena M(: said...

because the earth tilts and changes the seasons.

SammyG said...

the tilt of earth makes 1 hemisphere in more direct light than the other hemisphere. the earth tilts 23.5 degrees so it is stronger in one hemisphere. it takes 1 year for the earth to rotate completely around the sun, and during that year, the tilt of earth is facing different directions. as a result, when it is summer in the northern hemisphere, it is winter in the southern hemisphere. and when it is summer in the southern hemisphere, it is winter in the northern hemisphere.

Camille D said...

we have seasons because of earth's tilt.When it is winter on one side of the earth it is summer on the other because the side that is winter gets less sun. So when the earth rotates on the tilt so that only one part of the earth gets most of the sun.

Rand N. said...

The earth tilts and most of the sunlight hits one of the hemispheres so its winter up here and summer down there.

Kyle M1 said...

we have seasons because of the earths tilt. The earths tilt. The earth tilts us toward the sun it makes us hotter, when it tilts us away it gets colder.

Daleandnessarepurple said...

The tilt of the earth determines the season

Maddie C said...

we have seasons because the earth is always rotating.

Stevey A said...

The earth is tilted and it makes the northern and southern hemisphere facing a different way and away from the sun and makes different seasons

kiyah said...

We have seasons because the earth is always rotating. (tilt)

Gail L(: said...

The earth is tilted and the earth rotates around the sun.

kyleL said...

We have seasons because the earth is always rotating and and there are 4 seasons and 4 stops were the seasons start.

Julia M said...

seasons happen when the earth is tilted on its axis

cam.l 7 said...

seasons are caused by the tilt of earth and how it rotates around the sun.

aj b said...

the reason we seasons is because the earth revolves around the sun while rotating . the earth is also tilted on its axis so it can be warmer in one spot

tyla g said...

There are seasons because the Earth tilts on its axis and the 2 hemispheres have different amounts of heat.

We have seasons because of the tilt of the earth and the rotation of the earth around the sun.

SoPhIaA. said...

The earth rotates to have night and day and the earth tilts to have different seasons. If the northern hemisphere in tilted a little its spring, If the northern hemisphere was tilted more it would be summer. To make winter the northern hemisphere is tilted out, to make autumn the earth is tilted in a little more than it is when we have winter.

Julia M said...

As you probably know, the Earth rotates in space – spinning like a top – is it orbits around the Sun. Imagine there’s a line passing through the Earth, from the North pole to the South pole, and then out into space in both directions. This is called the axis of rotation.

Anonymous said...

We have seasons because when the earth the moves the sun gets either close are far away from the earth so when the sun is close its summer and when the sun is faraway it is winter. <333 ;) Hannah Says...

Emily G. :-) said...

The earth rotates to change seasons, we have seasons because when the earth moves the sun to get closer or farther from the sun it is winter and when its near the sun its summer.

Lucas T said...

We have seasons because when the earth rotates it reaches the summer solstice and the winter solstice.

Liz N. :) said...

We have seasons because the earth rotates away from the sun and to the sun so it gets warmer and colder, this is called reaching the summer and winter solstices.

Mason B said...

Earth's seasons are caused by the tilt of the earth's axis.

Spencer P. Shields said...

The earth revolves and moves further away from the sun

Cameron T. said...

We have seasons because the Earths axis is tilted at 23.5 degrees. So while the southern hemisphere it is winter in northern hemisphere it is summer.

mattc said...

we have seasons because the is tilted on its axis and it is affected by which hemisphere is facing the sun

Kasey G. said...

We have seasons because Earth's axis is tilted. As the Earth orbits around the sun, different amounts of it's light hit the southern and northern hemispheres.

Ian C. said...

The seasons are caused by the earths axis.Also if the northern hemisphere is having winter the southern one is having summer and vice verca. Also when the earth is tilted away from the sun one part will always be cold.

Erik C said...

Earth's tilt causes different amounts of sunlight to hit the northern and southern hemispheres at different times during the year. This causes seasons.

Archer t said...

We have seasons because the tilt is the earth's axis makes one hemisphere warmer or colder than the other hemisphere.

Aaron R said...

the reason we have seasons are because of earths tilt. the earths axis is 23.5 degrese off therefor creating the seasons. this is why and how we have seasons

Sarah M said...

We have seasons because of the earths tilt. Different seasons occur when the earth is tilted towards or away from the sun.

Ronahn said...

Seasons occur because of the Earth's tilt. When less sunlight and energy is hitting a portion of Earth, that section is having winter. When lots of sunlight and energy is hitting a section of Earth, that section has longer days and it is summer.

Grace B said...

Seasons happen because of Earths tilt.

Sara H said...

We have seasons because of the Earth's tilt on its axis. So the sun's rays hit one hemisphere more than the other one.

Holly J said...

We have seasons because the tilt of Earth's axis. When it revolves around the sun the seasons change depending on the amount of sun that hit the Earth. So when its summer in the north hemisphere its winter in the south hemisphere.

Will P said...

Because of the tilte on the Earth's axis while the Earth revolves around the Sun

Nick M. said...

The earth is on a constant tilt, so as the earth rotates and orbits the sun, the sun's heat hit different parts of the earth. This is how Earth has different seasons.

Tanner McClure said...

We have seasons because of the earth's tilt in its axis. It makes one hemisphere warmer and colder than the other hemisphere!

Gracie N(: said...

We have seasons because Earths axis is tilted.

Isaiahp said...

Seasons occur by the Earth's tilted axis and when less of the sun's energy is hitting the earth, winter is happening. The more energy that hits the earth, there's summer.

Connor P said...

We have seasons because the earth is tilted on its axis, and while it revolves around the sun the sunlight is concentrated in different areas as it passes around the sun

KACEEB said...

Earth's tilt when the sun rays are hitting the southern and it tilled on its axis,

we have seasons because the tilt of earth

Lizzy G said...

we have seasons because earth is slowly moving around the sun.the sun had different phases.where ever earth goes it has a certain amount of sun. as the earth moves it gets different amounts of sun and in different places.

caelin w said...

i think we have seasons because the earth is tilted away from the sun and its winter and the southern hemisphere it is summer

Lauryn f said...

there are 4 seasons. The four seasons are spring, summer, fall, and winter. what changes the seasons are axises and the rotation of the earth. my favorite season is summer. my least favorite season is winter because it is cold

Traciee:) T said...

We have seasons by the Earth slowly turning on its axis.Where ever the sun goes it depends on the seasons.It takes 1 year for the Earth to fully rotate completely around the sun.

Anonymous said...

We have seasons to make the plants and stuff grow and to make erosion happen. Seasons happen by the earths tilt and its axis.

Anonymous said...

we have seasons because when earth rotates the seasons change as it rotates.

jarred s said...

seasons occur because of the tilt of in earth.
So when the earth is on one side of the sun the north side has winter and the south side is having summer.when the earth is on the other side of the sun the north side is having summer and the south is having winter.That is why we have seasons.
