Summer will start June 21st, Fall will start September 22nd and Winter will begin on December 21st. The weather is different during each season. Spring starts after winter so the weather starts to warm up and you would see people starting to plant in their gardens. Summer is when it is the hottest. People go to the beach to swim in the summer. Fall is also called autumn. It starts after summer and is before winter, so the weather starts to cool down. People start raking leaves in their yards during this season. Winter is the last season. It starts December 21st. This is the coldest season of the year. During this season it snows and people go skiing and ice skating.

Instructions

Hello students.

Today for science you will be using the links below to research about the four different seasons we experience during the year.
You will identify the names of the seasons and when each season begins this year.
You will also be expected to describe what the weather is like during each season.
Lastly, you will need to identify what activity someone would be doing during each season of the year.

In your post you need to answer the following questions:
  • What are the names of each season?
  • When will each season start in 2014?
  • What is the weather like of each season?
  • What kind of activity would be seen during each season?
You will then write a short summary of your findings. You should include the following:
  • Names and start dates of each season
  • What the weather is like for each season
  • Activities that would be seen during each season.

After you have completed the written work you must include at least FOUR (4) images that illustrate the seasons we experience.

Lastly, at the end of your post you need to include links to more information about the four seasons with an explanation of what the link is.

Use these links to research

HAPPY HUNTING!!!
