The Earth is not perfectly round; it is slightly flattened at the _____ and _____ pole.
Answer: North and South
Earth is not a perfect sphere — it is slightly flattened at the North Pole and the South Pole, and it bulges a little at the equator (the middle). This shape is called an oblate spheroid. This happens because Earth spins, and the spinning pushes the middle outward.

_____ are small balls of ice that fall sometimes with rain.
Answer: Hailstones
Hailstones are small balls or lumps of ice that fall from the sky, sometimes mixed with rain. They form inside big storm clouds when water droplets freeze into ice. Snowflakes are soft ice crystals that fall separately. Sleet is a mix of rain and snow. Frost forms on surfaces when temperatures are very cold.

Answer: Direction (North, South, East, West)
A compass is a tool that helps us find our direction. It has a magnetic needle that always points towards the North. Using a compass, we can find all four directions: North, South, East, and West. Sailors, hikers, and pilots use compasses to navigate and find their way.

The Sun sets in the _____.
Answer: West
The Sun always rises in the East and sets in the West. This happens because the Earth rotates (spins) from west to east. So in the morning we see the Sun in the eastern sky, and in the evening it goes down in the western sky. This is the same everywhere on Earth!

Look at the picture. What kind of day is it?
Answer: A foggy day
The picture shows a foggy day — everything looks hazy and it is hard to see far away. Fog is like a cloud that forms very close to the ground. It is made up of tiny water droplets floating in the air. Fog is common in winter mornings and makes it difficult for cars and planes to travel safely.
