We have moved our clocks, why?

Answer the following questions. Consultation with your colleagues is encouraged and expressing your own opinion is expected. The teacher has provided some links on the right that you may find useful.

1. Explain what Daylight Saving Time is.

2. Give some reasons for having Daylight Saving Time.

3. What are some of the drawbacks to Daylight Saving Time?

4. If we were to have a plebiscite on the issue, which side would you vote for?

5. Why don't they move the clock at 3pm this Friday? Why wait to the middle of the night on Saturday?

6. In the links I have provided, their is a table of sunrises and sunsets. If we had set the clocks back an hour last weekend, what would that mean for children trick and treating.

7. Would it be lighter or darker when you get up this coming Monday?

8. Be prepared to give a strong minute campaign speech to support either side of the Daylight Saving Time issue.
