Supports the National Curriculum
Science, Year 3, Light
Find patterns in the way that the size of shadows change.
Science, Year 6, Light
Use the idea that light travels in straight lines to explain that objects are seen because they give out or reflect light into the eye.
Science, Year 6, Light
Use the idea that light travels in straight lines to explain why shadows have the same shape as the objects that cast them.
