Why do we have seasons and how do they affect my life? We have seasons because the earth is tilted on its axis‚ as it makes its yearly journey around the sun. The Earth’s axis is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees. This means that the earth is always ‘pointing’ to one side as it goes around the sun. So‚ sometimes the sun is in the direction that the earth is pointing‚ but not at other times. The varying amount of sunlight around the earth‚ during the year‚ creates the seasons. We have hot

Dance Critique: The Rite of Spring The Rite of Spring was choreographed by Vaslav Nijinsky‚ a Russian dancer and choreographer.

Why do we have seasons? We all know that The Earth‚ our planet‚ spins around on its own axis. It is an imaginary line passing through the North and South poles. That’s how we get night and day.

As the Earth revolves around the Sun in a wide circle‚ sometimes the top portion (Northern Hemisphere) is towards the Sun‚ and sometimes
