    This document provides an overview of topics covered in Grade 6 Science, including weather patterns in the Philippines, motions of the Earth, and planets. It discusses climate types in the Philippines, the reasons for seasons due to the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt, and how the tilt affects daylight hours and sunlight intensity. It also covers moon phases and the rotation and revolution of the Earth.

    Grade 6

    SCIENCE 6
    TOPIC II: EARTH AND SPACE
    SUBTOPICS: - Weather Patterns in the Philippines
    - Motions of the Earth
    - Planets

    Weather –is the condition of the atmosphere at a particular place over a short period of time in terms of:

    Climate – refers to the weather pattern of a place


    over a long period of time."

    Based on the modified Corona


    classification, the four climate
    types in the Philippines are the
    Types I, II, III, and IV.

    The dry season may be
    subdivided

    further into:
    •

    cool
    dry

    season,
    from December to February;

    and
    • hot dry season,
    from March to May."

    The Reason for Seasons

    • The Earth is in a slightly elliptical orbit


    around the Sun - we are farthest from the
    Sun during the
    Northern Hemisphere summer.
    • It is the tilt of the Earth’s axis with respect to orbit
    plane that is the cause of the seasons.

    The tilt has two main effects.


    1) The path the Sun takes through the sky changes
    during the year. Fewer daylight hours in the Winter.
    2) The intensity of sunlight decreases in the winter

    The Night Sky at Different
    Seasons
    • We see different stars at different times of the year.
    The stars are always there, but can only be seen
    against the dark night sky.

    Moon phases
    • The moon phases are due to the
    relative positions of the Sun and
    moon. One half of the moon is
    always illuminated, it is only a
    question of what fraction of
    the illuminated face we can see
    from the Earth.

    Motions of the Earth

    ROTATION-refers to the movement of the Earth around its


    axis. It causes day and night. The Earth completes one
    rotation for 24 hours.

    REVOLUTION- refers to the


    movement of the eart around the sun on
    its orbit. It results into different seasons. The Earth
    completes one revolution for about
    365 ¼ days.
