Periscope
You can’t see around corners… or can you? In this activity, carefully placed mirrors change the path light takes twice, making it possible to look over walls, around corners and even behind you – all without being seen.
Learning outcomes:
- Investigate how light travels in a straight line and can be reflected by a mirror
- Use observation and questioning (curiosity) skills
- See how the properties and behaviour of light have useful and relevant applications in our everyday lives
