BRaSSS Physics - Colour Vision - Years 7-9

These physics resources for students in Years 7-9 are part of the BRaSS initiative and should be used in conjunction with the Teachers' Pack.

Lesson aims:-

  • To develop an understanding of colour vision;
  • To appreciate which aspects of the behaviour of light and colour are a matter of physics and which are a matter of the biology of the eye and brain;
  • To develop an understanding of the technology behind colour printing and colour TV;
  • To link the physics of light and sound to music and art;
  • To develop, in a very tentative way, some questions about the nature of perception if some colours are synthetic.
