Light and Colour

We have started looking at Light and Colour in Room 1 as part of our Science topic. Here is a selection from the things the students want to know;

How do we see light?
How is light different colours?
Why does light shine from the sun?
How is it made?
Why does light travel so fast?
Why do shadows make a picture of you?
How does light stay being light? What happens when it stops?
Why is this crayon brown when I look at it and not blue?

I think I have my work cut out and 'because' probably won't cut it.

Here is a collage of the spectrum that we have made in class. Special thanks to the main gluers - Olivia, Liam and Maggie May as well as all the colour finders.
