when its its sunrise and evening.
The sun casts the longest shadows immediately after sunrise and immediately before sunset.
Summer would probably have the the shortest shadow because the sun is right over us and winter would have the longest because the sun isn't right over us. The length of the shadow really doesn't depend on the seasons. It is really about where the sun is in the sky. But in order for there to be an actual shadow, the sun must be visible. So in summer you would find the most shadows but not the longest. You can get a long shadow in any season as long as the sun shines.
The time of day in which your shadow is longest is right before sunset, but early enough that there is still a good amount of sunlight. Your shadow is at it's shortest at 12 noon. As the sun goes further down, you are blocking more and more of its rays. The same could be said in the morning as the sun is rising. You will cast a long shadow that grows shorter until the sun is directly overhead.
the shadow of the sundial is just called a shadow
To tell time using a shadow clock, place a stick upright in the ground and mark its shadow at regular intervals throughout the day. As the sun moves across the sky, the shadow will move as well, allowing you to estimate the time based on the position of the shadow in relation to the marked intervals.
the longest shadow you see in the day is 3\early in the morning and near the sunset...
That depends where you are on the planet. Your shadow would be longest if you were standing on a rotational pole at the time of equinox. At this point your shadow would be infinity long as it would be "projected" into space. However as a rule of thumb one's shadow is longest when the sun is rising or setting but high enough to cast your shadow.
Morning
The sun casts the longest shadows immediately after sunrise and immediately before sunset.
Just after sunrise, or just before sunset.
At dawn and dusk.
at noon the shadow is point sized {smaller} and in morning and evening the shadow is the longest.

A shadow is longest in the early morning or late afternoon when the angle of the sun is low in the sky. This occurs during sunrise and sunset when the sun is closest to the horizon, causing objects to cast longer shadows.

As can be observed on any sunny day, the shadows are longest at sunrise and at sunset.
