Sun and Shadows

In Akeake we have been learning about space this term. We have been reading about different planets, writing about Uranus and even designing our own planets! In Kōpapa we learnt a bit about the sun. We know that the sun is a burning ball of gas, it is a star, it gives us light and heat, and it creates shadows on the ground. We did an experiment on the court to investigate our shadows. We discovered that our shadows change size depending on where the sun is in the sky.
