Product Code : SCL-W-12320
The Wooden Periscope is an educational optics model used for demonstrating reflection of light, image formation, mirror alignment, and indirect viewing. It is suitable for school science laboratories, physics classrooms, STEM labs, activity rooms, and students learning how plane mirrors redirect light to observe hidden or elevated objects.
Product Description
The Wooden Periscope by School Equipments is designed to help students see how light can change direction through a mirror arrangement. A basic periscope uses two plane mirrors or reflective surfaces positioned at suitable angles, commonly 45°, so light from the object reaches the observer’s eye through reflection.
This model supports practical lessons on angle of incidence, angle of reflection, image direction, straight-line propagation of light, and real-world optical instruments. It is relevant for physics laboratory equipment, waves and optics teaching apparatus, periscope optics models, periscope kits, and the wider School Equipments product range.

How to Use the Wooden Periscope
- Hold the Wooden Periscope in a vertical position.
- Place the lower viewing opening near the eye.
- Point the upper opening toward the object to be observed.
- Look through the lower viewing hole and adjust the position slightly.
- Observe how light reflects from the upper mirror to the lower mirror.
- Ask students to trace the light path and identify both reflections.
- Compare direct viewing with periscope viewing to explain indirect observation.
Safety note: Do not look directly at the Sun or intense light sources through the periscope. Handle the wooden body and mirror surfaces carefully to avoid damage.
Care & Maintenance
- Wipe the outer wooden body with a clean, dry cloth after use.
- Keep the mirror surfaces free from dust, fingerprints, and scratches.
- Store the periscope in a dry cabinet away from moisture and impact.
- Do not drop, crush, open, or force the mirror alignment.

The brand supplies physics apparatus, optics models, STEM kits, science kits, didactic models, laboratory instruments, and classroom teaching aids. The Wooden Periscope is positioned for practical optics teaching where students need to observe reflection directly, not only study ray diagrams. Buyers can source related optics and science models through the verified School Equipments catalogue.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Wooden Periscope used for?
A Wooden Periscope is used to demonstrate reflection of light, plane mirror alignment, image formation, and indirect viewing in school optics lessons.
How does a Wooden Periscope work?
It works by reflecting light between two plane mirrors or reflective surfaces, allowing the observer to see an object that is not directly in the line of sight.
How many mirrors are used in a basic periscope?
A basic periscope generally uses two plane mirrors placed parallel to each other at suitable angles, commonly 45°.
Does the Wooden Periscope require electricity?
No. The Wooden Periscope is a manual optical model and does not require electricity for basic reflection demonstrations.
Can students use it directly?
Yes, students can use the Wooden Periscope under teacher supervision. They should handle the body carefully and avoid touching the mirror surfaces.
Is the size of the Wooden Periscope confirmed?
No. The supplied data does not confirm the exact dimensions, wood type, mirror size, or finish. These details should be verified before publishing.
