Y3 Science: Investigating Light!

3rd Feb 2022

This week in Science the children continued to learn about light. They investigated how light affects the colours we see and they then explored which colours are easier to see in darkness or when there is less light.

The children created a dark cave, using black-out material, and placed coloured card on the floor. They then crawled into the cave to discover which colours they could see the most clearly and which they could not.

Afterwards they explored which colours were clearest when light was let in gradually as they experienced how this affected what we could see.

Everyone had a great time investigating the impact of light on how we see certain colours.
