Splitting of Light Experiment

P6.22 were visited by the Principal Teacher of Science from Eastwood High School. They conducted an experiment where they passed a beam of white light through a glass prism. The light got split into all the colours that make up the light. This pattern of colours is called a spectrum.

P6.22 also looked at how shadows are formed and how the eye can see in colour. They were given an opportunity to ask questions throughout the lesson.
