Here are some photos of our continued journey into geometry and Alberta's Mavericks:
 |
| Prisms, angles and optical illusions. |
 |
| Recording our findings about the effects of light through glass prisms. How do angles can change perspective. |
Here's a little video showing how this convex glass prism shows refraction:
 |
| Concave means lens curve inward like a bowl. Convex means curves outward. |
 |
| light travels in a straight line and refracts when it passes from one substance to another, is the principle behind why a prism separates white light into individual colors. |
 |
| Testing out Reflection. |
 |
| Using nets to make triangular prisms. What shape would you get if you took a cross section of this prism? |
Today we used a historical artifact to explore important Mavericks from Calgary's Past. These books from 1989, really sparked some amazing conversation. We did a See, Think, Wonder thinking routine to explore the stories and impacts of these important people.
