Summary A series of activities using mirrors, can be run as free experimentation. Science content Physics: Light and Sound (1) Activities in this lesson Mirrors for looking round corners Mirror symmetry patterns Kaleidoscope Mirror maze and writing Mirror multiple reflections Mirror faces Resource Mirrors Procedure Students are told what the challenge is at each station. Students freely experiment at each station with minimal guidance, so that they can make their own discoveries. Discuss discoveries and pull out key concepts on light reflection (and angles for older students). End the lesson with building a kaleidoscope each. Notes Science Club did three activities: Mirrors for looking round corners, Mirror symmetry patterns, Kaleidoscope. New York After School programs did more. Grades taught Gr 1 Gr 2 Gr 3
