Seasons

There are four seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Parts of the Earth experience each season once each year.

The image shows the Earth's orbit around the Sun with four key points labeled: March (MAR), June (JUN), September (SEP), and December (DEC). The Sun is at the center, and the Earth is depicted at each of these points in its orbit. The Earth's tilt is indicated by arrows pointing north and south. The path of the Earth's orbit is represented by a dotted line with arrows, and it is labeled "path of Earth's orbit."
