Remember to stand up straight. Find the closest day of the year on the shadow table. Questions Check your answer with a clock. Compare with everyone else's answer. Have a very tall person measure their shadow and compare their measurement with the measurement for a short person.
Extensions Make a bar graph of all the shadow lengths for the class.
Find the average shadow length for the class. Patterns over a day. Have the class repeat the shadow activity at several different times during the day. Before measuring, predict what the results will be. Make a graph on graph paper showing shadow length at the times you measured.
