In this activity, learners will explore light and rainbows with this easy setup! Learners will only need a cup of water, some paper and a flashlight.

In this optics activity, learners use water to make a coin "appear" and "disappear." Use this activity to demonstrate how light refracts and introduce light as waves.

In this activity, learners create a water prism to break light into the seven colors of the rainbow.

In this optics activity, learners use glass and water to demonstrate total internal reflection (TIR).

In this activity, learners create a "mini sky" in a glass of water in a dark room.

This is a quick activity/demonstration that introduces learners to the concept of index of refraction. Learners place stirring rods in a jar of water and notice they can see them clearly.

Learners experiment with a commercial photo-sensitive paper (Sunprint® or NaturePrint® paper). They place opaque and clear objects on the paper and expose it to bright light, observing the results.
