Hi guys! In this Webquest will help us to discover important things about Seasons
What is a season? :
A
season is a division of the
year, marked by changes in
weather,
ecology, and hours of
daylight. Seasons result from the yearly revolution of the
Earth around the
Sun and the
tilt of the Earth's axis relative to the plane of revolution. In the temperate and polar regions, seasons are marked by changes in the amount of
sunlight, which in turn often causes
cycles of dormancy in plants and
hibernation in animals.
We can say a lot things about the weather just by looking outside the window.
As all we know there are four seasons during the year: Spring, Summer, Autumn or Fall, and Winter. But with very different characteristics. For example:
During the spring, the flowers are growing.
In the summer , as all we know, is the hottest time .
In Autumn the leaves fallen and we can see tree branches
Finally during the Winter , the air is frost and normally will be snow
Task
Draw a picture of how your town looks in winter an other in summer?
What happens in spring?What do many creatures do in Autum?
What can you do during the summer?
What is the weather like in the winter?
Tell how Fall and Autumn are different
What months are in your season? What holidays are in your season?
Process
1. We are going to use this resources in our classr to take notes on the effects weather conditions have on vegetation and animals.
2. First we must visit the "resources".
3. After, we must divide our class to work better.4. Then you must do the questions provided in "questions".
5. Once of all pupils answerd the questions we put the hole class together.
6. In the class or into the school pupils must find pictures for each of your responses, they can use computer too.
7. At the end in pairs you will make an exposition to the teahcer.
