Albedo and Irradiation of Surfaces
Here is a physical science activity where pupils place thermometers inside of a white and a black paper pocket and place them under a lamp. They record and compare the temperature increase over a ten-minute period. Have your class...
Curated OER
Laser Types and Uses
Students examine the properties of lasers and research their types and uses. For this laser lesson students view several demonstrations.

Wherefore Art Thou, Albedo?
In the sixth lesson in a series of 21, scholars use NASA data to graph and interpret albedo seasonally and over the course of multiple years. This allows learners to compare albedo trends to changes in sea ice with connections to the...
Close Up Foundation
Rights Auction
In an engaging activity on universal and unalienable rights, learners work in groups to establish a democratic nation and determine what principles they want to protect to ensure a democratic society. They conduct a "rights auction" in...

Investigation 3 - What is Moonlight?
Third graders observe a demonstration explaining that the moon reflects sunlight in ordr to shine.
Curated OER
Enlightening Explorations, Part II
Sixth graders review their results from the previous experiments. After viewing a kaleidoscope, they make their own pattern on paper and describe the role of light. To end the lesson plan, they examine light being relfected and...
Curated OER
Plane Mirrors
Students investigate the law of reflection by using mirrors. In this physics lesson plan, students operate a robot using IR controllers. They explain the path of light as it reflects through a surface.
Curated OER
Frozen Film
Students are introduced to the topic of light interference through this hands-on activity. They observe how light reflects off two surfaces and then meets to form an interesting variation of color on a film surface.
Curated OER
Just The Fax
Students discover how a fax machine works including: how a light sensor works, how light is reflected and how signals move across telephone lines. A "bingo" type game is played where students simulate the work of a fax machine to create...
Curated OER
Optical Images
Ninth graders study optics and the law of reflection. For this optical images lesson students use a laser and conceptualize the law of reflection.
Curated OER
A Brand New Day
Students locate Maine on a classroom map and discuss if Maine is where the nation's first light is found, where would the nation's last light be seen. They explore the idea of the sun rising in the east and setting in the west.
Curated OER
Online Exploration: Telescopes From the Ground Up
Young scholars explore a web-based illustrated text and interactive graphics to determine the relationship between the operation of telescopes and light. optics. They work in small groups to become an expert on one of the ten eras of...
Curated OER
African American Inventors Society
Young scholars examine the inventions of African Americans and how their inventions contributed to the common good. In this African American inventions instructional activity, students research the inventions of African Americans and...
Curated OER
Phases of the Moon
Young scholars explore why when you examine the moon depends on its location in relationship to the sun and Earth. The moon never goes away or changes shape-we just see a different fraction of sunlight being reflected from the moon to...
Curated OER
Contour Drawing Shells
High schoolers develop skills in shading and create eye movement through the use of lights and darks. They show five principles of shading while drawing shells and bones.
Curated OER
Echolocation
Young scholars explore echolocation. In this bats science lesson, students compare sunlight reflecting off a mirror to sound waves hitting a bat's ears. Young scholars complete a worksheet about bats.
Curated OER
Polite Listeners and Traffic Rules
Students consider the necessity of rules. In this citizenship lesson, students consider the reasons for rules and they complete traffic light activities.
Curated OER
Color and Spectrum
Students examine the spectra of light sources that have similar colors. In this light lesson students complete an activity using various lights in the classroom and discuss the colors and the heat generated.
Curated OER
The Space Cadet's Laboratory: Using Electromagnetic Energy to Study Astronomy
Students build their own spectrophotometer to study light. In this physics lesson plan, students explain the dual nature of light. They calculate the angle of incidence and refraction using Snell's law equation.
Curated OER
Practical Illustrations of Astronomical Concepts Relating to the Solar System
Eighth graders are introduced to concepts related to the Solar System. In groups, they participate in an experiment in which they must describe a ray of light and how it travels. They draw a diagram of the electromagnetic spectrum and...
