Use a model to show the effect of light on objects. Emphasize that objects can be seen when light is available to illuminate them or if they give off their own light.

This is an interactive, first-grade Nearpod lesson tied to SEEd standard 1.3.2. It guides students through information and activities about using a drawing (model) to show the effect of light on objects.
This resource is a student-ready, three-dimensional SEEd science lesson you can add to your Nearpod library. Many of the phenomena, text, and images come from UEN OER textbooks, Seedstorylines.org, ck12.org, and pixabay.com. Most videos are from youtube.com or pbslearningmedia.org. Many of the simulations were found at phet.colorado.edu, ck12.org, and pbslearningmedia.org. This lesson is unique to Nebo School District but was built with the help of many amazing ideas from teachers throughout Utah.

This is an interactive, first-grade Nearpod lesson tied to SEEd standard 1.3.3. It guides students through information and activities about investigating that light can travel through some materials, can be refelcted off some materials, and some materials block light causing shadows.

Plan and carry out an investigation to determine the effect of materials in the path of a beam of light. Emphasize that light can travel through some materials, can be reflected off some materials, and some materials block light causing shadows. Examples of materials could include clear plastic, wax paper, cardboard, or a mirror.

This is an interactive, first-grade Nearpod lesson tied to SEEd standard 1.3.4. It guides students through information and activities about designing a device that uses sound or light in its structure to communicate over a distance.

This lesson is unique to Nebo School District but was built with the help of many amazing ideas from teachers throughout Utah.

Design a device in which the structure the device uses light or sound to solve the problem of communicating over a distance. Define the problem by asking questions and gathering information, convey designs through sketches, drawings, or physical models, and compare and test designs. Examples of devices could include a light source to send signals, paper-cup and-string telephones, or a pattern of drumbeats.
