A day full of shadows (in post-toddlers class, 3-4 y.o.)

PART 1

Children said: Look, hands create shadows!

Teacher said : Ok, but what is a shadow ?

And children answered:

Shadow is something black Shadow does not let the sun to burn us It’ s something scary There are small and big shadows Shadows need light There are shadows in the dark We can hunt our shadows We can touch our shadows Shadows are on the ground

Ok then, let’s find some shadows in class!

Let’s do shadows with our hands

Small hand Big hand

Light changes our hand

What about shadows of things?

Let’s do some testing

Shadow of a castle

And some more playing

To be continued…
