SCIENCE OPT-IN - COLOUR AND LIGHT

Today Mrs Lunn challenged us to make a rainbow using some different objects.  She gave us a mirror, a prism, a piece of white paper and a torch.  She said we might not need to use all the things she gave us... but it was up to us to see what combinations worked.  We WONDERED how we were going to do it!

There was HUGE excitement in Wonderland as we EXPLORED how to make rainbows.

Here's what we found out:

Mason - When Elliot was holding the prism, we aimed the flashlight at it and it made a really big rainbow

Parker - When we held the prism up to our eyes and tilted it we saw a gigantic rainbow and everyone we looked at looked like a rainbow

Keira - I thought it was quite cool, just like Parker said, when you had it on your eye that when I looked at our rainbow flags, the colours changed

Finn - Me and Quinn B put the prism on the edge and then shone the torch and it made a big rainbow

Jacob S - We put a mirror on the bottom and one on the top with prism on the bottom mirror and we put the torch at the prism and we could see a rainbow

Connor - I found out that me and Cruz could make a rainbow by putting a mirror on the bottom and putting the prism upside down.  We flashed the light and it made a rainbow.


SO WHAT...

Finn - You can make rainbows out of light

Keira - The light is made up of different colours

Here is a video of Keira explaining what she knows about rainbows...

In Science we were working with Mrs Lunn.  We were trying to make.  They were pretty hard and we used a torch ad a triangular prism and a mirror.
