Radiation from Space
In this radiation worksheet, high schoolers review the different types of radiation waves that come from space and the different telescopes used to detect this radiation. This worksheet has 17 true or false questions.
Curated OER
Turbidity Experiment
Students experiment with turbidity in water. In this turbidity lesson, students get a glass of water and shine a light through it to see how the light reflects. They slowly add dirt and shine the light to show how the dirt affects it...
Curated OER
Making a Simple Film Canister Kaleidoscope
Students use clear film containers with 1/4 inch holes drilled in the bottom to create kaleidoscopes. They use mirror board folded into a triangle shape and cake decorating sprinkles to create the kaleidoscope effect.
Curated OER
How Telescopes Work
Young scholars experiment with water and mirrors to better understand how telescopes work. In this telescopes lesson plan, students use water and mirrors to see how mirrors reflect light and create a magnified image.

Curated OER
Is Your Blue Really Blue? [Metamerism]
Pupils learn fundamentals about color perception, and explain the phenomenon called "metamerism". Students learn the three basic components of color perception: light source, illuminated colored object, and the light detector.
Curated OER
Snell's Law (And Then Some)
Students conduct an experiment to test Snell's Law using a block of lucite and a ray box. They measure the light rays as they impinge upon the block. Students are also asked to draw the situation of the lab or create a model of the...
Curated OER
Gel-O-Colors!!
What distinguishes the differences between refraction and reflection? Learners identify the properties of light as they mix colored light to create new color variations. As they work they gather data about the properties of light and...
Curated OER
Photosynthetically Available Radiation (PAR) Measurements
Students calculate the amount of solar radiation hitting the ground at their school compared to the solar constant. They also repeat the experiment at a water testing site and utilize a light probe to measure the light being reflected...
Curated OER
Spectral Surprise
Students create spectral colors. In this hands-on science lesson, students examine the electromagnetic spectrum as they follow steps to create a model that separates and displays light.
Curated OER
What Color is Chlorophyll?
Students observe the interactions of chlorophyll and light. They develop and form their own testable hypotheses. Students predict the color of chlorophyll in various types of plants.
Curated OER
Create Your Own Kaleidoscopes
Seventh graders create a kaleidoscopes after researching Sir David Brewster and his ideas on light. They recognize the properties of optics from making and using the kaleidoscopes.
Curated OER
As the Sun Burns
Students examine the types of light the sun gives the Earth. They describe the electro-magnetic spectrum and how to protect themselves from different types of light. They identify the layers of the atmosphere as well.
Curated OER
Solar S'Mores
Students see that solar energy is the energy given off by the sun. They explain that when light energy is absorbed by objects it is changed to heat energy and that dark-colored objects absorb more light and store more heat from sunlight.
Curated OER
Colored Shadows
Young scholars examine how humans perceive color. In this refracted light activity, students explore the different ways color is seen by the human eye. Young scholars will use colored lights and colored paper and solid objects to make...

A Bright Idea
Pupils establish an understanding of electricity and then demonstate that understanding by creating a basic experiment involving a lemon battery. They reflect on the importance of electricity.
Curated OER
Solar S'Mores
Students investigate solar energy. In this solar energy lesson, students compare how heat is absorbed in light-colored objects and dark-colored objects by making S'mores.
Curated OER
Physical Science: Solar Energy
Students review and discuss how Solar energy and electricity produce light and heat. They create a photo/picture journal and include pictures taken during solar energy activities to a PowerPoint slide presentation.
