In Badgers we have been celebrating British Science Week. We have been asking scientific questions abut shadows. We decided to investigated whether different materials produce the same shadows. We were so surprised to learn that this isn't the case! We were able to make dark, clear shadows using opaque black card, patterned shadows using net, light blurry shadows using translucent plastic, and coloured shadows using transparent plastic! We didn't know we could make coloured shadows!
