Formed by Plane, Cylindrical and Spherical Mirrors- To demonstrate
that all mirrors reverse the image front to back, and that the apparent
right to left reversal in a plane mirror is a result of this front to
back reversal.

and vertical axes and to recognize that ones eyes lie along a horizontal
axis and ones forehead and chin lie along a vertical axis.

The students will illustrate and describe a circuit which uses a tape
player, inductor, and flashlight to modulate a light beam.
- Homemade Instruments-
Students will identify what sound is and make musical instruments out
of household items.
- How Sound Travels-
To observe that sound moves better through a solid than it does through
a liquid or a gas.
- I Can See A Rainbow!-
As a result of this lesson, students will be able to identify the colors
of a rainbow using the mnemonic ROY G BIV.

To make a Laser holograph and to understand why it works.
- Lenses- Students
in grades 5-8 will discover, through exploration and observation, what
lenses are and what lenses can do.
- Let There be Light-
The students will learn the process of photosynthesis. This is for all
grades.
- Light- What kind
of property does light have?
- Light- The main
objectives of this mini-teach is for primary students to understand
the Nature of Light.
- Light- Students
will be able to calculate the angle of reflection and the angle of incidence
and discover that these angles are equal.
- Light And Color-
Students will learn where light come from by using a laser.
- Light and Vision-
Explains the normal eye.
- Light: Reflection:
Illusion- The student will understand The Law of Reflection in practical
application as it applies to a plane mirror.
- Make Waves- Students
in grade six will discover, through exploration, the basic characteristics
of waves.
- Making Sounds-
The students will be able to observe that vibrating objects can produce
sounds.
- Microscopes and Telescopes-
To use a knowledge of lenses to develop how microscopes and telescopes
were first invented.
- Mirror Symmetry/Mirror
Images- The intended grade level is sixth grade, but much of this
is easily adapted to any grade. This would be at least a two day lesson.
- Mixing Colors With
Light Beams- The objective of this lesson is for pre-schoolers and
primary graders to learn about mixing colors by light beams. The enjoyment
of seeing the colors change and learning the difference from mixing
paints.
- Mixing Primary Colors-
The kindergarten students will be able use different ways to mix primary
colors.
- Mystery of the Mirrors-
Compare objects in two mirrors at right angles to each other and describe
what happened.
- Now Hear This!-
In this project, students will be able to describe how sounds are heard
by the human ear by creating a model of the human inner ear.
- Optical Illusions-
Given the introduction to optical illusions ,each student will be able
to identify and construct four optical illusions illustrated in class.
- Pitch- To observe
that the pitch of a sound varies by the length of the vibrating medium.
- Plane Mirror Images-
Where a plane mirror image is (behind the mirror, not on the mirror).
- Polarization of Light-
Students will discover that polarization filters will be able to block
incoming light from passing through when filters are positioned perpendicularly
to each other.
- Polarization-
Demonstrate some phenomenological activities illustrating interference
patterns.
- Polarized Light-
The idea is to show what polarized light is and show some examples and
applications from the "real world".
- Polarized Light-
To develop a model which can account for differences in light behavior
using a second set of polaroid filters.
- Reflection Relay-
To use the laws of reflection to bounce a beam of light around a classroom
to hit targets and to attain the lowest elapsed time to hit the targets.
- Reflections Of-
The student will be able to observe and compare the angle of incidence
with the angle of reflection.
- Reflections With Mirrors-
Students will be able to define reflection. Students will explain the
laws of reflection.
- Sound- To demonstrate
different ways to produce sound.
- Sound- The student
will be able to identify and understand these vocabulary words: vibration,
volume, pitch, particles, tuning forks, waves and matter.
- Sound- To understand
that high pitched sounds are caused by more vibrations and low pitched
sounds are caused by fewer vibrations.
- Sound- Children
shall "discover" that sound waves can be directed with a megaphone and
collected with an ear trumpet.
- Sound- After this
lesson, the student should be able to relate the pitch of sound to the
length of a vibrating object.
- Sound/Pitch- To
discover how pitch can be changed in instruments that are plucked (strings),
blown (woodwinds and brasses) or hit (percussion).
- Sound:
The Vibration of Materials- Students will recognize that the sound
produced is dependent on the type of material that is used.
- Spherical Mirrors-
Construct ray diagrams of images in spherical mirrors. Find images of
objects in spherical mirrors.
- Understanding Waves-
Eighth grade students will gain an understanding of the properties that
all waves have in common.
- Wave Motion- Identify
and explain the difference between a transverse and longitudinal wave.
- Waves- Students
will be able to state the properties that a medium must possess in order
that waves may be transmitted through it.
- You may now enter
the Holodeck- The students will be able to compare and contrast
photography and holography, and therefore be able to explain the basic
characteristics of a hologram along with the reasons for such attributes.
