Sundial

For our history this week, it was suggested that we make a sundial.  We saw this sundial last week at the zoo so I told the kids that we would be making one this week. 
4x6-1009 620


I found this template for making one instead of following the directions in the book Days of Knights & Damsels.

I had Cameron decorate the gnomon.
  4x6-1009 1129 4x6-1009 1130 
Then Luke wrote the numbers in Roman numerals.
4x6-1009 1131
Finished product
4x6-1009 1135 4x6-1009 1136 4x6-1009 1137


Trying it outside...I kinda just guessed which way was north...and it was around 5:00 pm when I took the picture
