Quick experiment idea to try tonight!

Start the year with a simple rainbow‑light investigation using an optical glass prism. Place the prism in a beam of sunlight or a torch on a white wall or sheet of paper, then slowly rotate it to split the light into a spectrum; older children can measure the different coloured bands and talk about how white light is made of many wavelengths


To extend the experiment, try shining light through coloured acetate or felt‑tip‑coloured plastic first and compare how the spectrum changes; this links beautifully to primary and secondary curriculum topics on light, refraction, and colour mixing.
