What causes day and night


In our class we are learning what causes day and night. Day and night is caused because of the spinning of the earth. The sun is a ball of gas. When the earth turns one side of the earth is having night and one side of the earth is discovering day. One side of the earth that is not facing the sun is having night and the other side is having day.  Also the earth has a 22 and a half degree tilt.  There are one moon and one sun in our galaxy but the other planets have more than one.  It takes twenty four hours to turn around the earth.   It is twelve hours of day and twelve hours of night.  But when it is winter it takes eight hours to get dark and in summer it takes.
