Y3 Light and Shadows

Pupils investigate the importance of our sense of sight when carrying out everyday tasks. They also learn the importance of light sources and reflected light to our sense of sight. They also learn how difficult it would be to complete simple everyday tasks if our sense of sight was impaired.


Learning Objectives:

  • PoS - notice that light is reflected from surfaces
  • NaG - pupils should explore what happens when light reflects off a mirror or other reflective surfaces
  • WS - setting up simple practical enquiries, comparative and fair tests; reporting on findings from enquiries, including oral and written explanations, displays or presentations of results and conclusions
