Worksheet Overview

Although the length of a day is always the same, the amount of daylight we receive changes across the year.

 

Clock

 

We receive more daylight hours in summer. In winter, the days are shorter.

 

Over the year, our seasons change, spring, summer, autumn and winter. We notice seasonal changes in the weather, day length and temperature.

 

Tree through the seasons

 

Let's have a look at how the length of our days is affected by our journey around the Sun.
