The Four Seasons: Grade One

This document discusses the four seasons and what causes them. It explains that seasons are caused by changes in the Earth's position relative to the sun throughout the year. The four seasons are autumn, winter, spring, and summer. Each season lasts about three months and is characterized by changes in temperature and weather patterns. Places near the equator do not experience distinct seasons because their position relative to the sun remains consistent year-round.
