 The Year 4 pupils have been exploring the Earth’s rotation on its axis and how this movement

 causes day and night. They also investigated how the Earth’s rotation affects shadows and their
 sizes. As part of their learning, they conducted an experiment to demonstrate that shadows
 appear larger when closer to a light source. They measured shadow lengths at different times of
 the day—8:00 am, 10:00 am, midday, and 3:00 pm. The pupils discovered that the longest

 shadows occurred at 8:00 am and 3:00 pm.
