Location of the Sun Lab

Hypothesis
If I draw the location of the sun in the morning, at noon, and in the afternoon, I will see
that the sun _has moved_____. (Delete underline and these directions after writing)

Materials
Pencil
(Add however many you need)

Observations
In complete sentences, describe what happened with the three of your drawings.
Remember to be clear in addressing what drawing, morning, noon, or afternoon. Stick
to describing, no interpretation or opinion needed, this is just the observations.

The way I had observations is that the sun was always going to the right for what part of
the day it was. Because the more later the day was the more the sun went to the right
and the more early it was it was more to the left. The last thing I saw was that the sun
may look like that it is always in different places but it is always in the same spot for
ever.
Analysis
In complete sentences, analyze your drawings. Why do you think the sun was in the
place or places it that it was? Can you relate this to the earths rotation?
The reason is you know how we go in circle around the right? Well you see when it turn
dark it is going on a different part of the earth then when it is day the sun is on us. The
reason why we do this is because the earth spins. That cause it to know what time it is.
Did you know that people use the time from the sun.
Conclusion
Address your hypothesis, was it right or wrong? Why do you think so? What did you
learn from this experiment? What does this experiment tell you about the earths
rotation and relationship to the sun? Answer all these questions in complete and
separate sentences.
Yes my hypothesis was right. Because i was right about that the sun was always in a
different. I learned that the experiment is that the sun always rise in the west and end in
the east. That the sun does not move the earth moves.
