Do you know the reason for the seasons? Mrs. Bauer's sixth-grade students took a hands-on approach to answering that question. We have the privilege of visiting her science class at the Sixth Grade Center and watching students uncover the answers behind Earth's seasonal changes.

Mrs. Bauer explained that the Earth’s 23.4” axial tilt and its orbit around the Sun cause the seasons. Students were asked to recreate each season using small globes and flashlights as models. By shining their flashlights on the small globe, keeping the Earth tilted at 23.4", students observed how the sunlight spreads out or becomes more concentrated.

Students illustrated each season and the positions of the Sun and the Earth, using globe and flashlight models to guide their sketches. Students were instructed to draw arrows indicating the different orbital directions and axis rotations.

Students sang "Alama Terra," "Afternoon on a Hill," and "Amani Utupe (Grant Us Peace, Give Us Courage)," and the SGC Ringers wowed the crowd with "Freedom March," and "Salty Popcorn," to name a few.

BRAVO on a stellar spring performance SGC!
