- The four seasons are spring, summer, autumn (fall), and winter.
- Seasons occur because the Earth is tilted on its axis as it orbits the Sun.
- When one hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun, it experiences summer; when tilted away, it experiences winter.
- Spring and autumn occur during the transition periods between summer and winter.
- The Northern and Southern Hemispheres experience opposite seasons at the same time.
- Near the equator, there are no distinct seasons; temperatures remain warm year-round.
- At the North Pole, you would mostly have winter all year, while near the equator, you would have warm weather year-round.
