sundial making from maths

sundial facts 

1. A sundial is a device to tell time and measure how much the sun is moving across the galaxy.

2.The sundial was the first time clock to tell time and all they needed was something flat, a some sort of writing pencil and a stick.

3. In the Egyptian century's, Egyptians made the first ever sundials by casting a shadow with a stick and watched the shadow move around by the sun

sundial questions

I did not know~ The thing I didn't know about sundials were that they were created and discovered by Egyptians. very interesting

did you know~ The Egyptians were the first and ever ones to discover sundials, and to be honest i thought scottish were made by them, but i guess they are way more capable than you think.

i have learn't~ The time I've done with the sundial making was very educational like where the shadow of the stick is gonna end up on which line to tell time or how to know where to put the stick in cardboard at but anyway, doing this with my friends made it fun enough for me.


and this is what my team and me made. (you might want to turn down the volume)

    You did a lot of research on sundials. I enjoy learning about them and I hope I do that when I am year nine.
