Thanks to the sun! Shadows!

We were very thankful that the sun came out from behind the clouds today so that we could measure the shadows! On Monday we planned an investigation around the question, how do shadows change over the course of the day? Unfortunately we had, up until now, been unable to carryout our measurements because it had been very cloudy.

Finally today the sun decided to come out and play and we were able to go to the playground and make our measurements taking into account how to make our test fair. There were a couple of occasions when we had to wait patiently for the sun to shine down on us but we are now able to look at our results and draw some conclusions from them.
