Light Travels in Straight Lines

A diagram shows a flashlight beam hitting a mirror at an angle. Arrows indicate the reflected path, demonstrating the law of reflection. Students label incident and reflected rays on the worksheet.

Transparent, Translucent, and Opaque

Three jars sit on a table: one clear glass, one frosted, one metal. A flashlight behind each shows how light passes through, scatters, or is blocked. Students sort materials by light behavior.

Rainbow Prism Experiment

White light enters a triangular glass prism and splits into a vibrant spectrum of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. The worksheet asks students to label each color band.

Shadow Length at Different Times

A stick casts three shadows on the ground: short at noon, long in morning and evening. Sun positions are drawn above. Students measure and compare shadow lengths on the worksheet.

Parts of a Simple Lens

A magnifying glass is shown with its convex shape and focal point labeled. Arrows indicate how parallel light rays converge. Students identify the lens type and draw ray paths.

How We See Colors

A red apple sits under white light. Arrows show white light hitting the apple, with only red light reflecting to an eye. The worksheet explains absorption and reflection of wavelengths.

Light and Plant Growth

Two potted plants are shown: one under a bright lamp, one in a dark box. The healthy green plant contrasts with the pale, leggy one. Students predict which plant grows better.

Making a Pinhole Camera

A cardboard box with a tiny hole projects an upside-down image of a candle on its back wall. The worksheet labels the pinhole, image, and light path for students to complete.

Refraction Through Water

A straw appears bent in a glass of water. Light rays are drawn entering the water at an angle, changing direction. Students explain why the straw looks broken on the worksheet.

Light Energy Sources Sort

Pictures of the sun, a firefly, a candle, a flashlight, and a light bulb are shown. Students classify each as natural or artificial light sources and write their answers.

Light Travels in Straight Lines

A simple diagram shows a flashlight beam hitting a mirror at an angle. Students trace the path of light rays to understand reflection and how shadows form when objects block the light.

Exploring the Color Spectrum

A prism splits white light into a rainbow of colors. This worksheet asks kids to label red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, then match each color to its wavelength.

Transparent, Translucent, or Opaque

Three jars sit on a table: one clear glass, one frosted, and one metal. Students classify materials by how much light passes through, learning about shadows and brightness differences.

How We See Objects

An eye diagram shows light bouncing off a tree into the pupil. Kids fill in blanks about light sources, reflection, and the path light takes from an object to the retina.
