The Reasons for the Seasons


The essential questions that sixth graders are asking in Science this month are related to space science.  They are asking -  What is Earth's place in the universe?  What makes up our Solar System?  How does the motion of the Earth explain seasons and eclipses?

After reading their lessons and working with many models, students created the following explanations for why we have seasons in the temperate regions of the Earth.  The explanations were then turned into videos to demonstrate what they have learned and share it with their parents and friends.
