This document discusses the Earth's movements and how they cause seasons. It explains that the Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours, causing day and night. It revolves around the sun once every 365 days. The tilt of the Earth's axis and its elliptical orbit cause variations in sunlight over the course of a year, resulting in seasons. The summer solstice occurs on June 21 when the North pole is most tilted toward the sun, causing the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. The winter solstice is on December 22 when the North pole is most tilted away from the sun, resulting in the longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. The document also discusses time zones,
