Science World Colour and Light Activities
How are rainbows made?
What makes grass green and jeans blue?
How do sunglasses work?
In this series of demonstrations and activities, students will explore how colours are created and understood by our brain.
This unit also demonstrates numerous ways of producing or revealing colour through chemical reactions, mixing different colours of light and pigments, and chromatography. As a result, students develop an appreciation for the complexity of something we take for granted: colour!
