Are your students learning about the Sun? Our The Pattern of the Sun worksheets are just what you have been looking for! These worksheets will provide students with the opportunity to identify how the Sun rises, sets and casts shadows throughout the day.

We have included multiple options to suit the needs of your class:

1. Students can draw the Sun’s position at sunrise, midday and sunset.
2. Students can draw and describe the Sun’s position at sunrise, midday and sunset.
3. Students can draw the moving pattern of the Sun throughout the day (from east to west).
4. Students can draw the moving pattern of the Sun throughout the day and add shadows to reflect this movement (from east to west).

Students may benefit from the worksheets being enlarged to A3.
