Another day of science means another class rotation. The class my group rotated to was Room 9, Miss K's class. Miss. K taught us about light, refraction, reflection and how light is involved in colours. I enjoyed learning more about light and doing all the activities which were very fun.
Light can do many things, light up the world, reflect off objects, create many colours and many more. Did you know that it takes light from the sun 180,000 kilometers per hour to travel to earth?.
Light takes a special part of colour such as rainbows. Light(Sun) and rain, mist or fog, creates rainbows. Speaking of rainbows, though rainbows looks like a semi-circle they are actually circle shaped. Also that colour is a reflection of the seven beams of light. These colours our the colours of the rainbow. A trick to remembering the colours of the rainbow is to say ROYGBIV, an acronym for the sequence of colour.
Another fact about light is Reflection and Refraction. Reflection is when lights slows down through water/glass and this causes light to bend. Reflection is when light bounces off a shiny light so you can see yourself(Mirror).

Hi Luisa, I love how you focussed this post on sharing your learning about light rather than describing the activities you took part in! I find rainbows really interesting, its a shame I missed out!
