Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify and explain different ways of changing the size of shadows and differentiated worksheets to select and write explanations about how to change the size of shadows produced by a light blocked from a source.

The interactive presentation can be used to explore a range of ways of changing the size of different shadows produced by a light blocked from a source.

This lesson is part of a science scheme of work to get the children to investigate and record how a range of light sources including the sun can make and change shadows using different opaque materials. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
