Durable 25mm plastic optical prisms set, complete with a range of shapes for light experiments.

Ideal for enhancing Year 6 Science lessons on light, this Optical Prism Set is made from 25mm thick plastic, featuring ten distinct shapes such as triangular, rectangular, and convex. Tailored towards experiments in reflection, refraction, and the properties of light, this set makes complex scientific concepts engaging and understandable.

Supporting the Year 6 Science curriculum, it helps elucidate the nature of light and its interaction with different materials, using practical experiments. This includes demonstrating how light travels in straight lines and the science behind the creation of shadows. The included shapes offer varied learning experiences, making lessons dynamic and interactive.
Each set comes with a foam-lined storage box, ensuring the prisms are well protected and organised. This not only facilitates ease of use but also prolongs the set's life, making it a valuable addition to science teaching resources.

Science, Year 6, Light

Recognise that light appears to travel in straight lines.

Science, Year 6, Light

Use the idea that light travels in straight lines to explain that objects are seen because they give out or reflect light into the eye.

Science, Year 6, Light

Use the idea that light travels in straight lines to explain why shadows have the same shape as the objects that cast them.
