What is the shadow ?
A simple question that takes us to the world of science , because shadow is a natural phenomenon that occurs due to the effect of light on any one subject.
The shadow is not matter itself , but is visible to the naked appearance and his feelings cause eye, causes emotions and makes one wonder . It is in this field of imagination that could launch flight and reaching places never visited before . Plato uses the shadows in his classic text, The Myth of the Cave , where men trapped deep in a cave see shadows projected on the walls and it makes them believe that those silhouettes are real.
The shadow theater is an ancient technique that helps with education as a tool that allows the teacher to work cross-cutting issues in a playful and entertaining way . Besides contributing in the development of cognitive abilities and knowledge : reading, drawing , cutting , interpreting , talking and working together .
