Today, in our exciting science lesson, your Year 6 embarked on a captivating journey into the enchanting world of light! These engaging investigations brought out the inner scientist in each of our young learners. Here’s a quick peek at what they discovered:
1. Mirror Magic: Writing Names Our young scientists had a blast writing their names using light and mirrors. They marvelled at how difficult it was to write their name whilst only looking in the mirror.
2. Water Wonders: Investigating refraction glasses of water became their experiment canvas. By observing how light bends and shifts when traveling through water, our budding scientists learned about refraction, all while having loads of fun!
3. Target Practice: Aiming lights at targets through different holes on paper made for an exciting challenge. This experiment helped our students grasp the fundamentals of shadows and how they are formed when light is blocked.
4. Colour Creations: The world of colours came alive as our young explorers shone light through transparent stained paper. They were amazed by the beautiful colours that emerged, discovering how primary colours blend to create new ones.
These hands-on experiments not only fuelled their scientific curiosity but also honed their critical thinking skills. We encourage you to chat with your child about these exciting investigations. Science is all about exploration, and your child’s enthusiasm for learning is sure to shine brighter than ever!
