Sun-Based Sundial Design
This activity aims to teach students how to measure time and design a sundial by observing the
movement of the sun and the formation of shadows. Students combine their scientific,
mathematical, and design skills by creating a sundial that operates based on the movement of
the sun. The activity focuses on direct observation, data collection, and analysis. It also helps
students understand the basic concepts of the sun's movement and the angle of sunlight,
fostering their interest in the sciences.
