Lettuce likes shade. It is also a cool temperature plant, so it will try to go to seed.
For shade/sun requirements, you can look on the seed package for planting directions. If you bought a plant, the plant my have a tag for planting directions.
Otherwise, ask around. Find other gardeners; they are usually eager to help out.
