Light

 

This cartoon comes from the site: http://www.conceptcartoons.com

Look at the picture and think about the three different opinions given by the children.

Why do they think the way they do?
A The shadows don’t overlap because the sun is the only light source.
B The shadows do overlap because of the contours of the trees.
C The shadows do overlap because the sunbeams come from different positions.
