About This Product
Students direct the light towards a screen, card, mirror, filter or object and watch for changes in brightness, colour, shadow shape or reflection direction. Changing one variable at a time, such as object distance or mirror angle, encourages prediction and comparison, and results go into practical records. The kit links classroom science with everyday light behaviour and prepares learners for later lessons on reflection, refraction and image formation. Export supply of the Play with Lights Kit can be arranged to laboratories and schools in Mongolia, Cameroon, Venezuela, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands and Lesotho.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How does the kit show the way shadows form? When an object blocks the light, a shadow appears on the screen or card. Moving the object changes the shadow shape, which students observe and record.
