Concept of Light Kit
This educational kit contains materials
and instructions suitable for safe,
hands-on, inquiry-based experimentation
into the nature and properties
of light. The kit is pimarily aimed at
students in middle school, but may
be used by elementary or high school
students by slightly altering the
instructions. Experiments that can be
performed include, what is light, how
does light travel, how do lenses affect
light, how do mirrors affect light,
how does colour relate to light, etc. Provides instructions for science fair activities and
optional Probeware/Datra Logging activities. Kit includes: six acrylic prisms, one triangular
prism, one half-round prism, two double concave prisms, one double convex prism,
one rectangular prism, one ray box, one plane mirror, one concave mirror, Newton
colour disc on stand, and wooden storage box. Grades 6-8.
Sh. wt. 9.25 lbs.
