Science
- The student learned about the properties of light, including reflection and refraction.
- They explored how mirrors can change the direction of light and how different surfaces affect reflection.
- The student observed the behavior of light and gained an understanding of how it travels and interacts with various objects.
- Through the activity, the student developed critical thinking skills by experimenting and making predictions about light and reflection.
