Plan an investigation placing objects in a beam of light - 1st Grade Science

The object that would be most appropriate for investigating light reflection would be a mirror. Mirrors reflect images and light, whereas paper and clothing absorb light. Using a mirror would allow someone to shine a light on the mirror and record how it reflects and study why.

A dark sweater would be the best object to use in an investigation about blocking light because it is made of a material and is a color that absorbs or blocks light. A glass cup and plastic wrap are clear, so the light will pass through, whereas a dark sweater will prevent the light from passing.

The best object for investigating light passing through a material would be the plastic wrap. All of the other answer choices would either reflect or block light from passing so they would not help with this investigation. Plastic wrap is clear and would allow the light to pass through.

Light can come from natural and human-made sources. An example of a natural light source is the Sun; an example of a human-made light source would be a lightbulb. Either one can produce light.

Annie is asking a valid scientific question, and it can best be answered with an investigation. For an investigation to be reasonable, it has to be something Annie could perform and would answer the question. Annie's plan to place objects in front of the beam of light would help her to see how light can be blocked and what type of items would be best for blocking light.

An investigation can be completed for a scientific question where data can be collected from measuring or observing what takes place. "Why do you want to block light in your everyday life?" leads to personal opinion rather than data because it is asking "why you" want to do something. Each person's opinion may be different.

The list of supplies that would be most appropriate is a flashlight, notebook paper, blue construction paper, and black fabric. Each of those items can be placed in front of the flashlight to determine which blocks the most or least light and if it makes the room dark.

This scientific question is comparing a room with two different amounts of light. One room would need windows to be blocked from light getting in, and Maggie would look and record what she can see. Another room would have light flowing in through a window, and again Maggie would log what she sees. Maggie has to have an investigation that would allow her to compare the two different amounts of light in the room.

If Matt is wondering what makes shadows beside the flashlight, he needs to explore other light sources. Looking around inside and outside will give Matt other light sources and views of shadows. Keeping recordings of the investigation will provide Matt the data and evidence he needs to make a conclusion.

The best plan for an investigation into how and why people block like would be to research online and then view with his eyes examples of light being blocked. He could record what he sees on the walk, in his own house, and the reasons online that he finds to answer his questions.
