Y3 Making and Investigating Shadows

Learning Objectives:

• PoS - find patterns that determine the size of shadows
• NaG - pupils should look for patterns in what happens to shadows when the light source moves or the distance between the light source and the object changes; they should be warned that it is not safe to look directly at the Sun, even when wearing dark glasses
• WS - pupils should use straightforward scientific evidence to answer questions or to support their findings; gather, record, classify and present data in a variety of ways to help answer questions; make systematic and careful observations; use results to draw simple conclusions
