Aiza learnt about opaque and transparent objects

Activity: "Aiza learnt about opaque and transparent objects”

Science

• Aiza learned that opaque objects do not let light pass through and block the view of objects behind them.
• Aiza learned that transparent objects allow light to pass through and objects behind them can be seen clearly.
• Aiza learned to identify examples of opaque and transparent objects in her surroundings.
• Aiza learned that some objects can be both opaque and transparent depending on their thickness or properties.

For continued development, Aiza can experiment with different materials to observe their transparency or opacity. She can also explore the concept of translucent objects and their properties. A fun activity could be creating a collage of transparent, opaque, and translucent objects using cutouts from magazines or drawings.
