A hammer and nails are just the tools to measure Earth's axial tilt

The correct scientific answer to, ‘How do the seasons occur?’ would be that they are caused by the
axial tilt of the Earth. The axial tilt of the Earth
causes the seasons, while seasonal changes occur
due to the orbital motion of the Earth round the
Sun. Studies in astronomy education show that students have many misconceptions about the reason
why seasonal changes occur (for example: when the
Earth is closer to the Sun it is summer, when farther
away it is winter; the seasons occur because the
Earth is orbiting the Sun, among others)
