SCIENCE WEEK 5

LET’S ANALYZE

SEASONS DISCRIPTION
SUMMER Temperatures may increase to their hottest
of the year. If they spike too high, heat waves
or droughts may cause trouble for people,
animals, and plants. Others may receive less
water, and forest fires may become more
frequent.
AUTUMN Temperatures cool again. Plants may begin to
grow dormant. Animals might prepare
themselves for the upcoming cold weather,
storing food or traveling to warmer regions.
Various cultures have celebrated bountiful
harvests with annual festivals.
WINTER The coldest season of the year, comes
between autumn and spring. It is associated
with plunging temperatures and icy weather,
but its impact and timing change according to
location. The farther an area lies from the
equator, the colder temperatures it
experiences.
SPRING Seeds take root and vegetation begins to
grow. The weather is warmer, and often
wetter. Animals wake or return from warmer
climates, often with newborns. Melting snow
from the previous season, along with
increased rainfall, can cause flooding along
waterways.
