Planning
3 differentiated worksheets
Printable pictures for children to sort.
This lesson gives the children chance to think scientifically about what light is. It also teaches that the opposite of light is darkness, which leads nicely into the next lesson which is about reflection (some objects reflect light rather than being a light source).
It gives them opportunity to discuss in pairs, groups or as a class to develop ideas as the lesson progresses.
Timed activities help to engage, excite and challenge the children. The main learning activity is differentiated 3 ways and the pictures can be used or not.
