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.
