Introduction
In the unit 'How we see things' # learnt that mirrors and shiny surfaces altered the direction in which light traveled and that when ^ sees an object, light enters ~ eye. # was able to contrast the differences between reflection and shadow formation.~ experimental and investigative work focused on * planning and carrying out a fair test, making ~ own observations and measurements and recognising when to repeat ~ measurements.^ has presented ~ results in a series of line graphs and identified the patterns in ~ data. The work in this unit also offered * several opportunities to relate ~ understanding of light, reflection and shadow formation to everyday phenomena which surrounds *.

Light Travels
Section 2: How light travels & Section 3: How we see light

^ was able to explain by drawing a diagram that light travelled from ~ torch to the wall and could be blocked by an opaque object.

^ has explained by drawing a diagram that ^ can see the torch light when the light from it enters ~ eyes.
"
Mirrors
Section 4: Exploring mirrors, Section 5: Beams of light,  Section 6: Reflection from surfaces

^ is able to explain by using drawings how mirrors can change the direction of a light beam. ^ is able to represent the direction in which the light beam travels by an arrow. 
^ has traced the path of the torch beam and ^ explained that it was reflected from the mirror.
^ is able to recognise in drawings that when the angle at which the light hits the mirror is changed, the path of the reflected light also alters. 
^ has produced a table of observations showing that shiny materials both reflect a torch beam and allow children to see themselves.
# could make a generalisation about shiny surfaces and reflections.
"
Shadows
Section 7: Investigating shadows
Children:

^ was able to suggest questions which might be investigated such as investigating the distance of object from screen, distance of the object from light source, angle at which light source shines on an object.
^ was able to show that , in the investigation, that ^ had changed only one factor while keeping others the same.
^ was able to identify results which do not seem to fit the pattern and ^ checked these by repeating ~ measurements.
# has successfully made a generalisation from ~ results such as the nearer the figure was to the torch, the bigger the shadow.


"
Summary
Section 8: Shadows and reflections
Children:

^ is able to identify observable differences between shadows and reflections. 
# can explain the differences between shadows and reflections in terms of ~ knowledge about light.
