Pinhole Viewer
Pupils make a pinhole viewer to demonstrate how it inverts light passing through it which produces inverted images.
Curated OER
Lenses and Mirrors
Students investigate lenses and mirrors showing how they bend and reflect light waves.
Curated OER
Color Recognition
Students envision how space observatories make use of monochromatic filters to collect data on the color of objects in space. They see the actual colors of objects when they are in monochromatic light.
Curated OER
Edible Model of the Sun
Students identify the different features of the Sun. In this space science lesson, students create a model of its surface using cookies and candies. They compare and contrast their model to the real Sun.
Curated OER

Invention
Students discuss the importance of recycling to the environment. They classify different objects and put them into the correct recycling bin. They create their own invention out of recycled materials.
Curated OER
The Discovery of the Solar System
Students explain the observed motion of the planets. The inner ones move back-and-forth across the position of the Sun, while the outer ones usually advance in one direction, but with occasional temporary reversals known as "retrograde...
Curated OER
The Celestial Sphere
Young scholars are introduced to the celestial sphere, describing its apparent rotation and the special role of the pole star.
Curated OER
