Big Ideas
- Light is necessary for objects to be seen.
- Objects can only be seen when they are illuminated by a source of light.
Essential Questions
- Why do we need light to see things?
- What happens if there is no light? Can we still see objects?
- How can you tell if an object is illuminated?
- What are different ways objects can be illuminated?
- What is the relationship between light and our ability to see objects?
