Picture
Since the Earth turns once every day, we have noon time once every day.  Noon is when we are directly facing the sun.

When we are directly facing the sun, all shadows from sunlight are shorter.  The opposite is true at sunrise and sunset.  The shadows are longer because the sun appears lower in the sky.

Do you think shadows are longer in summer or winter?  Think about what you know about where the sun appears in the sky in summer and winter, then leave a comment below.
