Climate Seasons around the World and in Panama

. Season is one of four times of year with different weather and different
amounts of daylight happen in a pattern. Each year seasons follow the same
pattern. First there is winter, followed by spring, then summer and fall. Once those
seasons are over, the pattern begins again in the same order.

Summer is the warmest season. It has the most daylight. Sunlight warms the
Earth for longer periods of time causing the area around you to heat up more in the
summer. In the summer trees are green. It goes from June to September.

In Autumn or fall, the days begin to get shorter and the temperature begins to cool
down. Leaves turn colors and begin to fall from the trees. Many animals start
getting ready for winter. It goes from September to December.

Winter always follows fall. In winter there is the least amount of daylight. Less
sunlight is warming the Earth in winter, so the weather is cold. Most trees have no
leaves and it can snow. It goes from December to March

Spring always follows winter. In the spring the days begin to get longer, and the
temperature warms up. Trees begin to grow flowers and leaves. Animals like bears
come out of hibernation in the spring. It goes from march to June.
