the earth moves
the earth rotates giving the illusion of the sun moving across the sky
The sun doesn't move across the night sky but the earth and all planets of the sky do.when we circle around the sun it just looks like it movesI.F
East It moves from East to west across the sky
As the earth rotates the sun moves across the sky from east to west. A sundial is set with the marker faceing north; as the sun moves across the sky the shadow of the marker wil point at the approiate hour. (sundials do not work before sunrise or after sun set)

Its the earth that moves, not the Sun. This happens because the Earth rotates towards the east. Here's a way to see how this works. Sit in a chair that can spin, and turn on a lamp across from you. Give the chair a spin but sit still and don't move your head. You will see the lamp move across your field of view just like the Sun moves across Earth's field of view (the sky).
the sun dosent move across the sky
Well, if you are in the southern hemisphere the sun will be going across the northern sky and if you are in the northern it will go across the southern. Depending on where you are you will know if the sun is in the north sky.
The shadow is caste by the Sun. As the Earth is spinning on its axis, so the Sun appears to move across the sky. As it does so, so the cast shadow also moves.
You can tell time by observing the position of the sun in the sky. The sun rises in the east and moves westward across the sky, reaching its highest point at solar noon. By noting the direction of the sun and estimating its angle above the horizon, you can approximate the time.
The angle between the sun's position in the sky and the horizon is called the altitude of the sun. It is the measurement from the horizon to the center of the sun's disk. This angle changes throughout the day as the sun moves across the sky.
It moves because of the gravitational pull of the sun.
