Rotating Light
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore what happens when polarized white light passes through a sugar solution.

Wave Machine
Source Institutions
This is a great activity about wave interference. Learners will create their own wave machine and discover wave properties through hands-on investigation.
Diffraction Between Wax Blocks
Source Institutions
In this optics activity, learners explore diffraction by adding wax blocks to a ripple tank. The wedge-shaped blocks act as obstacles that the wave must bend around.
Interference in a Ripple Tank
Source Institutions
In this optics activity, learners explore interference by adding wax blocks to a ripple tank.

On the Fringe (formerly Bridge Light)
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners trap a thin layer of air between two pieces of Plexiglas to produce rainbow-colored interference patterns.
