The Cycle of the Seasons
Spring March, April and May
Winter December, January and February
Summer June, July and August
Fall September, October and November
4
Summer
Summer begins in June. It is the hottest season
of the year. Days are longer with more hours of
sunlight. Some places get thunderstorms during
the summer. Even though it is hot, trees and
bushes stay green during the summer months.
5
Fall/Autumn
Fall begins in late September. In the fall, days
can be warm with cool breezes. Nights can get
chilly. Days begin getting shorter as winter
gets closer. Leaves on trees will change colors
before falling off.
6
Winter
Winter is the coldest season of the year. When
precipitation falls in winter, it can be in the
form of snow. Days are shorter. Tree branches
are bare since the leaves have fallen
off. Plants stop growing to conserve energy.
7
Spring
Spring is the season between summer and
winter. It may be sunny and warm. During the
spring, there could be strong storms that may
produce hail. As the weather gets warmer during
the spring, flowers and leaves begin to grow.
