Waves Day 6

Polarization, Diffraction, and Refraction
When light waves change direction, we get really cool colors

What: SWBAT describe the behavior of an wave that is being polarized, diffracted, or refracted. 
How: Students will create a comic strip to show at least 2 of the different ways that light waves change direction.  
Why: To be critical thinkers, we need to extend our knowledge of waves to the ways they interact with their environment.  

Agenda
1. Do Now
2. Brainpop and quiz
3. Bill Nye - Light optics
4. Light optics vocab notes
5. Exit Slip
