IN THIS LESSON

Learners will use a water and a light source to create a rainbow.

Explicit

Learners will gain further understanding that changes of direction in a ray of light, heat or sound when passing from one medium to another, there is a change in the wave velocity.

 

Connect the Learning

This teaches learners that light behaves as a wave, not just as a straight line. This is key to understanding how a rainbow is formed.
