In this chapter, we will learn about the properties of light.
We will discover that light travels in a straight line by doing activities.
We will also compare and contrast the shadows formed when light is blocked by transparent, translucent, and opaque objects.
Next, we will explore the reflection of light.
We will learn that light can be reflected by doing activities.
We will also discuss the uses of reflection of light in our daily lives.
Lastly, we will study the refraction of light. We will observe how light can be refracted through different media.
We will also learn that light can be refracted by doing activities and examples will be given to explain this concept.
• State that light travels in a straight line by carrying out activities
• Compare and contrast the shadows formed when light is blocked by transparent, translucent and opaque objects by carrying out activities
• Carry out experiment to determine the factors that affect the size and shape of the shadow
• Explain the observations that light travels in a straight line through written or verbal forms, sketches or ICT in a creative way
• State that light can be reflected by carrying out activities
• Describe the uses of reflection of light in daily life
• Draw a ray diagram to show the reflection of light from a mirror
• Explain the observations of reflection of light through written or verbal forms, sketches or ICT in a creative way
• State that light can be refracted, through observation using various media
• Explain through examples that light can be refracted by carrying out activities
