Exploring Seasonal Temperature Patterns

Julie noticed that the temperature in winter is usually the lowest compared to other seasons. If the winter temperature is 30°F, which of the following is most likely the temperature in summer?

• 25°F

• 85°F

• 40°F

• 32°F

If the temperature in spring is 60°F and in autumn is 55°F, which season is likely to have a higher temperature?

• Spring

• Autumn

• Both have the same temperature

• Winter

Julie recorded the following temperatures: Winter: 30°F, Spring: 60°F, Summer: 85°F, Autumn: 55°F. What is the pattern of temperature change from winter to summer?

• Decreases

• Increases

• Stays the same

• Fluctuates

If Julie wants to predict the temperature for autumn based on the pattern she observed, and she knows the summer temperature is 85°F, which of the following is a reasonable prediction for autumn?

• 90°F

• 70°F

• 55°F

• 30°F

Julie observed that the temperature in spring is 60°F and in summer is 85°F. What is the difference in temperature between these two seasons?

• 15°F

What is one advantage of using paper plates to model the moon phases?

• They are easy to paint and manipulate.

• They can accurately show the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

• They are expensive and difficult to find.

• They can be used to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth.

Which of the following is a limitation of Malachai's moon phase model using paper plates?

• It does not show the actual size of the Moon.

• It can be easily transported and displayed.

• It accurately represents the Moon's orbit around the Earth.

• It is a cost-effective way to demonstrate moon phases.
