🌟 Journey with Light & Shadows 🌟
1. Group Activity
- 🎭 Shadow Puppet Theatre – Students create shadow characters and tell stories using a torch.
- 🌞 Sundial – Learn how the Sun’s shadow helps us tell time.
- 📷 Pinhole Camera – Observe real inverted images formed by light.
- 🌍🌙 Solar & Lunar Eclipse – Demonstrate how shadows of celestial bodies form eclipses.
2. Model Preparation & Demonstration
Each group will make a model using simple materials like cardboard, paper, and torches. They will come forward one by one for demonstration and explain:
- The Scientific Concept behind their model.
- The Life Lesson connected with the concept.
3. Conclusion
At the end, students will participate in a short reflection session and discuss the morals learned.
🕒 Time is valuable — Be punctual.
📷 Patience brings clarity — Stay calm like a pinhole camera.
🌅 Darkness is temporary — Never lose hope.
