Why does the earth have four seasons?

[jocelyn wolff]

Why do you think the earth has only four seasons. Is it because of how often we orbit the sun? Or how the moon orbits us?

i think the reason we have four season is because the sun and the moon oribts us

i dont think this is true because we orbit the sun regularly and that has no change.

Because the earth rotates and we have different climates

[Dustin Lillie (Chiefs 2-14)]

I think that the earth has a axis going through it, which is the most important reason why we have seasons. And when the earth spins it casues the different seasons.

I think it depends on both the moon and the sun.

[Karissa Jensen]

I think that the earth has four seasons because when the earth is orbiting or revolving aroung the sun it spins so when part of the earth is facing toward the sun it is warmer and it is then in the warmer months when it is not facing the sun it is still kind of cold making it be winter or fall. That is why not every continent is experiencing the same weather because not all parts of the earth can be facing the sun at the same time and be getting the same amount of heat.

I have a simillar idea i think that it is warmer when the earth is closer to the sun. because the earth spins everyday .During the day it is notlike during the summer .And at night like winter. so i think it also has to do were th earth is closer or more far away.

[Lucas Baker]

the earth is at different angles which make different seasons.

[Shanna_Frazier]

It's because of how or were we are on the world like on the equator like by the north or south pole and that is how we get the four seasons.....i don't know if htat is exact but it is my best guess that i have....What do you think?

[Shanna_Frazier]

But i would say it has to do some what with being by the sun but that is just my perspective on the four seasons

[Brooke McFarland]

I think we have four seasons because of the moon and how it orbits us also because of the sun and its position.

i think the reason why we have four seasons are becouse the earth basicly has four sides the bottom top left and right so when the moon orbits the sun it gose around like a circle and thats why i think we only have for seasons but im not relly sure about it

[Sarah Gerkin]

its how we orbit the sun. the seasons change beacuse of the weather...
and weather is simplely hot and cold changing back and forth right?
so the sun causes our seasons
