In this three-part activity, learners conduct simple experiments to see how light refracts and reflects, and how colors of light affect what we see.

Learners test their "light-smarts" by playing a game called "Light Quest!" The game board represents an atom and each player represents an electron that has been bumped into the atom's outer unstable

In this activity, learners use their imaginations and picture a scene in their heads.

In this experiment, learners work in teams to investigate how the color of a surface influences its ability to reflect light and therefore heat.

Learners use simple materials to construct a model the Big Dipper. Learners hang the model from a doorway or ceiling and look up at it to see the constellation as seen from Earth.

Learners observe two model atmospheres -- one with normal atmospheric composition and another with an elevated concentration of carbon dioxide.
