Shadow Showdown Shadows are caused by blocking light - the shape and orientation of the object blocking the light help determine the shape of the shadow. Also, making shapes with your hands can result in shadow pictures
True Colours Three primary colours - red yellow and blue (relating to cyan magenta yellow in the subtractive colour space) can be mixed to make many other colours using paint or dyes
Making Rainbows Rainbows are distinctive patterns of coloured light. To make a rainbow you need water drops and sunlight, and the correct viewing position.
Flocker Flicker Animation is a process which works by presenting a series of still pictures very quickly, one after another. The result of this presentation is that the images then appear to move.
