Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to explain how to prove facts about light by conducting different tests and a worksheet to investigate and record how light reflects at the same angle by conducting different practical tests.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how light from a source can be reflected off a range of different surfaces and materials.

This lesson is part of a science scheme of work to get the children to explore and model concepts about how light is produced and how it can travel through different materials. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
