provide spiritual and religious guidance, like churches and temples. Some

Let’s read!
Tropical zone
The tropical zone is located on the equator between the
Tropic of Cancer in the Northern Hemisphere and the Tropic
of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere.
The Sun’s rays strike directly at this area, the temperature is
high all year long and the seasons are all very similar. In some

places, it rains a lot, it is very humid all the time and we find jungles. In other places,
there is no rain, and we find deserts.
People usually wear light clothes and sandals. Most activities take place outdoors.
People can enjoy a variety of water sports, because the ocean water is warm.
Temperate zone
The Northern Temperate zone is located
between the Tropic of Cancer and the
Arctic Circle and the Southern Temperate
zone is located between the Tropic of
Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle.
The Sun’s rays strike this area at a slight angle
so the temperature is moderate, higher in summer and lower in winter. In this zone
there are four distinct seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter. There is a wide variety
of forests, bushes, and animals because of the abundant rainfall and mild
temperatures. In the summer, days are long and hot and in winter days are short,
cold, and rainy.
Cold zone
The Cold zones are located inside the polar
circles. The polar zones receive indirect
sunlight so temperatures are always very low,
usually below 0°, and the ground is covered
by ice. The polar zones have two seasons:
winter and summer. Vegetation is scarce and
living conditions are very difficult.

With your teacher’s help, draw a concept map

or a graphic organizer about climate zones on
earth.
