Bill Nye Optics

Light interacts with objects differently depending on what they are made of.  Glass can refract and bend light while a mirror can reflect light at different angles.
There are lots of examples of reflections.  Any smooth surface can reflect an image but water is the most photographed.

Refraction is tougher but a rainbow is natural example of water refracting light to make a prism.

The Bill Nye video today will demonstrate both principles.  The students will need to write down 20 different things they learned from the video.  This will go in their notebook.  

The start up is "what is the difference between infrared and ultraviolet light?"
