Year 6 Experiment With Light

Year 6 have been learning their new Science topic on Light. They made model periscopes to investigate how light travels and how mirrors are used to change the direction. They also tested a variety of objects to see which materials reflect light from a torch best, concluding materials that are shiny and smooth reflect beams the most efficiently.
