Jo jo Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 We will be covering light and dark in next weeks planning following on from divali and fireworks. I work in a Reception clas and was just wondering if anyone had any exciting ideas for activities to fit with this topic? I have thought of a few but know how fantastic everyone on here is and would love some new ideas!! Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Hi, what about a dark den with torches in. Light and dark paper with charcoal and chalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beau Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Have you looked in the Night and Day part of the forum. There will be plenty of ideas there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Hi Paint: Add black to make paint darker and white to make it lighter. Yas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennyjenkinz Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I love to make playdough with black food colouring and get the children to add lots of different coloured glitter to give it a firework feel! (be careful tho', the last pot of black food colouring I got smelled of POO/sick combined!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 A 'light source walk' with digital cameras so the children can photograph what they see. I have also done this with whiteboards too so the children discuss their ideas/jottings when we return to the classroom. (Of course I have the 'don't look directly at the sun' chat beforehand!)
