Sun dial, fun dial

The sun is fast escaping so if you've got to do a lesson on time, why not tie in a bit of hands on sun dial making? 

All you need is a stick to make the dial, then a few markers such as rocks. Start your dial at 9 and a new person (who's doing the right thing of course) can add a new marker each hour. Your dial would probably only go from 9-3 but what an interesting thing to add to the day that doesn't take time away from any set work you might have and leaves something for the children to talk about and reflect on- even though you might just be in for the day, doesn't mean your teaching won't go in!
