Seasons (ELL)

Practice Tier 1 and Tier 3 vocabulary about Earth's tilt, sunlight angle, and how rotation and revolution create the seasons. All activities reuse the same ELL-friendly definitions.

Standards

  • MS-ESS1-1Develop and use a model of the Earth-sun-moon system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phases, eclipses of the sun and moon, and seasons.

NGSS = Next Generation Science Standards. This vocabulary is also written to support WIDA's Standard 4 (Science) English Language Development standard.

Beginner ELL Core Idea

  • Earth tilts as it spins, changing the angle of sunlight.
  • Earth revolves around the Sun once each year.
  • Different sunlight angles cause the seasons.
