It spins by......

Well the Earth is tilting to one side and it spins both around a sun and in a circle itself. The reason it never stops is because of Isac Newtons 1st Law of Motion. It is called inertia. It means that any object in motion will stay in motion until any force or friction is to come upon it. That means the Earth won't stop until something is to hit it. (That won't happen) How did the Earth start moving in the first place? Well, the Earth was just a tiny clump of gas and dirt floating around the sun. As these clumps joined together and made a ball, they were still moving because there was nothing to stop it. So that's how were still here today! (P.S. When the Earth spins on its axis, it causes both night and day! What a miracle!) Hope this Helps!

I'm a total blank on Sports of any kind, but this may help:

Picture Michael Jordan clowning on the court before the game. He holds the Basketball with both hands,
but it's perched on the tip of the finger of one hand. He gives it a mighty spin, and then he can take away
the other hand, because it's stabilized while it's spinning and doesn't need to be supported.

While it's perched on one finger and spinning, THAT'S what the earth looks like ... spinning on an imaginary axis,
but without the finger.

The word you are looking for is "rotate." It refers to the action of turning or spinning around an axis, such as the Earth rotating on its axis to create day and night.
