What is a shadow plot?
We make shadow plots on a piece of sturdy file folder paper with a sheet of white paper taped on top. One end of a paper clip is bent and fastened to the middle edge of the white sheet of paper. When students set it flat on a ledge outside, a shadow is casted beyond the piece of the paper clip that is sticking up in the air.
