Lesson 3
How We See.
The Problem of the Peek Box.
The objective of this lesson is to show students how light allow humans to see. This lesson is the first of the exploration section of this unit, in the first two lessons we used questions to glean understandings and perceptions. The next section is about testing theories and experimenting. The students will engage with the resources and through questioning and scientific processes generate and evaluate knowledge ideas and possibilities. They will make visual representations (labelled diagrams) reflect on their outcomes through reflections, posing questions and analysing the evidence.
· How can we change the box so that we can see the object?
· Can we see the object in the box?
· Do your eyes adjust to the dark?
· Could we see it in the dark if it were white?
· Are there shadows in the dark?
· How can we change the box so that we can see the object?
