Optical Physics (Light Transmission & Reflection)
Science & Innovation
Your child understands that light travels in straight lines, can bounce off reflective surfaces, and behaves differently when passing through transparent, translucent, and opaque materials.
In real life
Your child shines a torch through clear glass, baking paper, and a book. They sort them aloud: "All the light, some light, no light. So this one is translucent."
