Draw the meaning - absorb, transmit & reflect

This activity helps learners ‘draw the meaning’ of key words to do with light/radiation. It tests what learners think these words mean and builds an understanding of the concept behind each word. Two slightly different versions - one adds the word ‘emit’. Great as an instant engagement starter (on a sheet on the desk and shown on screen on entry to the room) to a lesson where these ideas will be explored. Also helpful for GCSE students recapping ideas before applying them in a context such as the greenhouse effect. Right click the web links to download the powerpoint shows.
