The 'Light and Shadow Posters' detail how light from a source forms shadows and can be absorbed, reflected and refracted. They show shadow comparisons, classifying materials as transparent, opaque or translucent, learning about the properties of an object and how they affect the colour of the object, using mirrors to demonstrate reflection of light and recognising the refraction of light at the surfaces of different transparent materials.
Identify sources of light, recognise that light travels in a straight path and describe how shadows are formed and light can be reflected and refracted
