The children were every excited to see that our classroom had become a dark room. The children worked in three groups and they had different objects, each of which, they had to measure the shadow from 2 metres away then 50cm. They used torches to shine on to the object. The children loved how the shape grew larger the closer the torch got to the object. They then wrote their results down and used Purple Mash to produce a table of results using a bar chart. Have a look at some of the fantastic shadows the children created. ### Shadows 2018 [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2294.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2294.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2296.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2296.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2300.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2300.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2302.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2302.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2305.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2305.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2306.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2306.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2317.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2317.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2905.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2905.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2906.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2906.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2910.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2910.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/21439/IMG_2912.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/21439/IMG_2912.JPG) [ iPad Photography](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/2018-10-05-15-34-15-ipad-photography) [Learning to Play the Ocarina ](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/2018-10-05-16-17-21-learning-to-play-the-ocarina) ### Our School - [Headteacher's Welcome](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/headteacher-s-welcome) - [School Vision ](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/school-vision) - [Mission Statement](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/school-vision/mission-statement) - [Academy Trust Details](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/academy-trust-details) - [Financial Information](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/financial-information) - [History](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/history) - [Our School Day](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/our-school-day) - [Staff list](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/meet-the-staff) - [Job Vacancies](https://recruit.sampeople.co.uk/Jobboard/Trust/aspirationalfutures/00002) - Governors - [Local Governing Board](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/governors) - [Special Educational Needs](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/sen) - [Ofsted](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/performance-reports) - [Performance](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/performance-reports/performance) - [Policies](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/policies) - [British Values Statement](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/british-values-statement) - [General data Protection Regulation (GDPR)](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/data-protection-notice) - [Mental Health & Wellbeing](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/mental-health-wellbeing) - [Equalities](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/equalities) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Gillibrand-Primary-School/61564646614865/?locale=en_GB) - [Staff Email](https://mail.google.com/) - [Staff Use Only](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/staff-use-only) - [OPAL Lunchtimes](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/opal-lunchtimes) - [Sustainability](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/sustainability) ![Gillibrand Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/logo/gillibrand_logo_2.png) #### Gillibrand Primary School Grosvenor Road Chorley PR7 2PJ 01257 274983 #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Gillibrand-Primary-School/61564646614865/?locale=en_GB) © Copyright 2015–2026 Gillibrand Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
