this week in science we started to learn about a very important subject, seasons. We went over how seasons are created, like as many people may think that we have summer when the sun is closer to the earth and winter when it is furthest but they is not right. the reason of how we are in summer and how we are in winter is because: in winter the sun is actually the closest to the earth but the sun light is less direct to us on the earth. In summer the sun is further from the earth but its sun light is more direct on us on the earth. what i mean by less direct and more direct is when it is less direct the earth is on an angle making the sun not being able to get a direct shot of rays on it which is winter. and in summer the earth is not as much tilted so the rays on the sun can directly hit us making extra heat. I can use what i learned this week in real life because; well i was already using it this week with my dad, because we were going out to the bank and he was like whao its really bright out let me get my sun glasses. and i was like yes it is very bright out because the sun is closer to the earth this time of the year but the reason why it is cooler out is because the sun is less direct on us. this week was great because i really understood it and i like to learn about real life things like that.
