Enlightening Explorations, Part II
Sixth graders review their results from the previous experiments. After viewing a kaleidoscope, they make their own pattern on paper and describe the role of light. To end the lesson, they examine light being relfected and refracted and...
Curated OER
Symmetry
Sixth graders explore symmetry and discuss the difference between a rotation and reflection. Using hands-on activities, such as folding paper shapes, they discover how to find the lines of symmetry and symmetrical characteristics. As a...

Which Colors Absorb the Most Energy?
Students measure the temperatures over time of different colored envelopes in order to explore the different rates at which each color absorbs energy from a heat lamp. They record their data and graph their results.
Curated OER
Geometrical Optics: Reflection and Refraction of Light
Students define and discus the concepts of wave fronts and rays. In groups, they distinguish between specular and diffuse reflections and use Snell's Law to predict the path of light rays. They calculate the speed of light through...

Reflection of Light With Two Plane Mirrors- Double Mirrors Placed at a Number of Angles
Students place two plane mirrors at different angles to experiment with reflection. They make kaleidoscopes and periscopes.
Curated OER
Magnificent Monet
Students research the water lily paintings of Claude Monet and the impressionistic art period. They create their own impressionistic art works and display them in the classroom.
Curated OER
Look What We Did Together!
Students reflect on and record what they do together as a class each week. They record it on a strip of butcher paper and draw a picture and write what they did.
Curated OER
Reflecting on Learning Experience
Students internalize learning experience by writing about it.
Curated OER
Frozen Film
Students are introduced to the topic of light interference through this hands-on activity. They observe how light reflects off two surfaces and then meets to form an interesting variation of color on a film surface.
