Why are constellations seen in different places at different times?

There are two reasons. First, the Earth is rotating, so over the course of a night they seem to move across the sky. Second, the Earth is orbiting the sun, so we are looking at different parts of the sky throughout the year. However, at the same time on the same date of the year, you will see the constellations in the same places. So you can tell the time of year and even the time of night by looking at them.
