Changing shadows...

SHADOWS????

What are shadows?
What causes shadows?
When can you see shadows?
When can't you see shadows?
How do shadows change?

We read a book about shadows and discussed how shadows change.
Change is the topic of our inquiry.  We had lots of great discussion and wonderings about shadows and how they change.  What better way to discover changing shadows, then to head out into the sunshine and experiment.

We made our shadows LONGER...
We made our shadows SHORTER...
We made our shadows CLIMB the wall...
We made our shadows MOVE and JUMP...
We discovered our bodies block the sunlight casting a SHADOW that CHANGES when we move.
We know that shadows do not happen without LIGHT from the SUN or other kinds of LIGHTS.

Well done Room 22.  Super inquiring!
