The following documents will walk you through this activity. Thanks again to Mrs. Berger's students for sending us this week's sunrise and sunset times from the Mystery Classes. Camino is about 50 miles east of Sacramento in the Sierra Foothills. We can draw a picture that shows the relative latitude of each class. Two weeks ago we used day length from Judith Gap, Mt and compared our day length to the other day lengths.
Longitude is more difficult to figure out.
Mystery Classes numbers 3 and 6 had unusual times because they went off Daylight Saving Time. We went off of daylight savings time yesterday. So now our times are an hour earlier. So now it's getting dark an hour earlier. Before long that's not going to matter too much.
