I'm working on my Japanese homework, and we're practicing describing weather.
We're given charts on temperature to say things like:

カイロは九月が一番あついです。Or, "In Cairo, September is the hottest month."

However, my book does not include how to say something like "In Cairo, June
through (the end of) November are the hottest months."

I was wondering if anyone has any solutions on this.

Thanks!

How to say: (one) month through (another) month
As mentioned から/まで is OK. That's a really basic Japanese 101-style
construction that you should be familiar with at a beginner level.

As an alternative start/end point type of constuction, you can use ～から～にかけて,
as in the following example [from
alc](http://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=%E6%9C%88%E3%81%AB%E3%81%8B%E3%81%91%E3%81%A6):

> 12月から2月にかけて、札幌の平均気温は氷点下です。  
>  From December through February, the average Sapporo temperature is below
> freezing.

[The expression
にかけて](http://www.weblio.jp/content/%E3%81%8B%E3%81%91%E3%81%A6) refers more
specifically to the span of time (or space) between the points you specify,
and particularly why that span of time is interesting. You probably wouldn't
say something like １２時から１時にかけてランチを食べる. A good English equivalent might be
"throughout."
