Science
- Aiza learned that reflective materials bounce back light, while non-reflective materials absorb or scatter light.
- She understood that reflective materials can be used to redirect light, such as in mirrors or shiny surfaces.
- Aiza explored various examples of reflective and non-reflective materials, such as mirrors, aluminum foil, paper, and wood.
- She conducted simple experiments to test the reflective properties of different materials and observed the results.
For continued development, encourage Aiza to explore the concept of reflection further by conducting more experiments with different materials. She can also investigate how the reflective properties of materials can affect their practical use in everyday life, such as in safety gear or architectural design.
