Periscope: Light Reflection Engineering Project
by Amanda Roum
In this lesson, students will learn about the basic principles of light reflection and how periscopes work. They will then apply this knowledge by designing and constructing their own simple periscopes. This hands-on activity will help students understand the practical applications of light reflection and basic engineering concepts.

This lesson is a whole unit on energy. It can be broken up into 10 separate lessons. I chose to put them all together so that it was easier to see how I organized them so you did not have to search

A lesson designed for an engineering course but that can be used in a science course where we investigate the physics of waves and how it can be applied to the world of art. Students will design and
