- 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 receives more direct sunlight and experiences summer; the other hemisphere, tilted away, experiences winter.
- Spring and autumn occur when neither hemisphere is significantly tilted toward or away from the Sun, resulting in more equal daylight and temperatures.
- The Northern Hemisphere experiences summer when the Southern Hemisphere has winter, and vice versa.
