The four seasons in Britain are very different. Read about what Daniel and Fiona think about winter, spring, summer and autumn.

Daniel

   Autumn is very beautiful time of the year. The leaves on the trees go brown, red and yellow and they go down. I love to watch it! We play in the parks a lot but we wear warm clothes, because the days get cold. School starts again in autumn, at the beginning of September. I don’t like school!

   Summer is the time for me! School finishes in July and we can play in the parks all the time. Sometimes it is very hot. People are happier and they talk with their friends and go for a walk more. The days are very long. In July, for example, it gets dark only about 10 o’clock. It’s very difficult to go to sleep at night! Fiona

   It’s very cold in winter! Sometimes, we have a lot of snow and we can make snowmen. I don’t like winter because we can’t go for a walk very much. We wear thick clothes and in our house it sometimes gets cold. When we come home from school at 4 o’clock, it is already dark. I don’t like it at all! But there is one good thing about winter - Christmas!

   After the long winter, spring is great! There are new leaves on the trees and the birds start to sing.

We can go for long walks again and play in the park. The days are longer and it doesn’t get dark until about six o’clock. It’s much warmer but it rains a lot and the days are very windy.
