This Key Stage 2 science lesson starter asks questions about light through the medium of a story and encourages further discussion on the subject.
Two friends, Liz and Heather, go to the seaside for a holiday and encounter problems with the lights in their hotel. Their seaside trip soons turns into a spooky experience in the dark with torches and shadows.
Throughout the story, questions about shadows, opaque and translucent materials, and light travelling in a straight line, are asked.
This video is part of the Lesson Planning Pack - Light for KS2 science, which includes two lesson starters, one great lesson idea and a CPD discussion.
