Four Seasons, Two Hemispheres
Mia lives in Canada and her online friend Rafael lives in Brazil. In December, Mia often sees cold weather and sometimes snow. Rafael's December is usually much warmer because the two friends live in different hemispheres. They enjoy comparing the weather. Mia sends photos of winter coats and snowy streets, while Rafael talks about hot afternoons and summer activities. They learn that seasons can affect clothes, sports, school holidays and daily routines. Even within one country, however, weather can vary greatly from region to region.
