Shadow Puppets
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore color, light and shadow by creating their own puppets to hold in front of a light source.

Light and Dark

Reflecting on Diffraction
Source Institutions
With a laser pointer and some household items, learners can create their own laser light show. They can explore diffuse reflection, refraction and diffraction.
