Why do seasons change?
Seasons change because the axis of the earth is tilted by 23.5 degrees (from a line perpendicular to its orbit). As the earth moves around its orbit there is a time when it is tilted towards the sun and so receives a higher concentration of the sun's energy (summer) and a time when it is tilted away and receiving less energy (winter).
This also explains why it is summer in N hemisphere when it is winter in S hemisphere.

Germination Process.
The germination is the process of emergence of growth from a resting stage, as the activation of a mature dormant seed causing it to sprout and develop the first tiny shoot and root; also the production of a pollen tube by a pollen grain deposited on a stigma or the growth of a vegetative cell or hypha from a fungal or bacterial spore. In a more broad sense, germination can imply anything expanding into greater being from a small existence or germ, either animal or vegetable.
La importancia del arte
A través del arte, los niños pueden expresar sus sentimientos y su creatividad mientras ellos desarrollan destrezas para el pensamiento crítico. Cuando uno les da materiales para el arte, ellos necesitan descubrir y experimentar sobre qué pueden hacer con esos materiales. Por eso es que es tan importante que el arte sea libre.Los niños pueden hacer arte apenas logren sentarse. A esta edad, ellos usualmente pueden coger marcadores y pinceles. Para los niños de 1 a 3 años, uno necesita artículos muy básicos que se enfoquen en el aspecto sensorial del arte – artículos como pinturas para los dedos, plastilina y crayones gruesos. Para los preescolares uno debe tener crayones regulares, papel, pinturas, pinceles, un atril, goma, y materiales para “collages” simples, como pedazos de papeles de colores, plumas, lazos, cinta adhesiva y tijeras. Conforme sus niños van creciendo y empiezan a explorar realmente su creatividad, usted empezará a añadir más artículos a sus materiales para el arte, como bandejas de lata, medias viejas o retazos de tela.
