  3. Patterns of temperature and precipitation should be described and, if necessary, explained. How to describe temperature and precipitation Use words and figures Quote actual figures from the graph

  4. Remember that midsummer is in June in the northern hemisphere and in December in the southern hemisphere Is temperature about the same during the year When is the warmest season Describe its temperature in words and figures When is the coolest season Describe its temperature in words and figures Calculate the range of temperature Describe the temperature in words and figures
