| One bright sunny day our class went to the schoolyard. Miss Brooks told us to look for something on the ground that belonged to us. We looked and looked. Finally Mike cried. "I know, It's my shadow on the ground." We saw that each girl and boy had a shadow and Miss Brooks had a bigger one. I tried some funny tricks. When I moved, my shadow moved. When I ran, my shadow ran, too. But I could' t catch it at all. Then Jess found a long and thin bamboo pole and stuch it in to the ground. Even the pole had a shadow. All this started me thinking about shadows. I did not have a shadow the day before, when I walked in the darkness. My shadow is never with me in my room at night when the light is out. I can't stop thinking about me and my shadow and about what makes shadows. I am going to look for more shadows because they are lots of fun. |
