Arras-France. Début du projet 2007-2008 -Kickoff

  • The pupils measured their shade at 9h 20; then they compared it with their own size.

  • Then they made the same thing at 11h50
observation: The shade decreases and turns because the sun is not any more in the same place in the sky (apparent movement of the sun)
  • Les élèves ont mesuré leur ombre à 9h 20 ; puis l'ont comparée à leur taille.

  • Puis ils ont fait la même chose à 11h50
observation : l'ombre diminue et tourne car le soleil n'est plus à la même place dans le ciel (mouvement apparent du soleil)

Thank you Franky. Our students are just wrapping up their parent-teacher-student conferences this week and should be getting on the noonday project shortly. Our school’s exact bearings read : 8 degrees 25 minutes 8.55 seconds North, 124 degrees 38 minutes 4.65 seconds East.

Regards,

Chris
