Y5 Opaque, Translucent or Transparent

Pupils sort a range of materials and items that have been designed for our eyes into opaque, translucent or transparent groups. Pupils explain why each item has been designed to either block, reduce or let light pass through them.

Learning Objectives:

  • NaG - pupils should build a more systematic understanding of materials
  • WS - plan different types of scientific enquiries to answer questions, including recognising and controlling variables where necessary
