California Academy of Sciences: Science @ Home - Sun and Shadows

Academy educator Ethan sheds some light on how the Sun’s path across the sky changes how your shadow appears.

While you watch this video, think about the two questions below. Share your answers with a friend or family member or just think in your head.

  • Where have you seen shadows before?
  • How do shadows change over a day? When do they get bigger or smaller?
