Activity #1
http://www.ontariosciencecentre.ca/sciencenow/games/ComputerCrayons/
Click on the link above and then answer the following questions in your journal.
1. The three colored circles represent the 3 primary colors of _________?
2. Name these three colors.
3. Drag the yellow circle so it overlaps the cyan circle. What is the secondary color produced?
4. Drag the yellow circle so it overlaps the magenta circle. What secondary color is produced?
5. Now drag the cyan circle so that it partially overlaps both the yellow and magenta circles.
What is the secondary color that is produced when the cyan combines with magenta?
6. What color is produced when all three of these colors are combined?
Activity #2:

Click on the link above and scroll down to the 3 colored circles. Answer the following questions in DCN Style.
1.These 3 colored circles represent the primary colors of _______.
2. Name these 3 colors?
3. When two of these colors combine in equal amounts they produce ______.
4. What secondary color is produced when we combine
a. red and green?
b. Blue and red?
c. Green and blue?
5. What color is produced when all 3 primary colors are combined in equal amounts?
Activity #3 (If this does not work at school, you MUST complete at home)
Click on the website below. Make 3 data charts in your journal like the ones below.
Play with the refraction activity to fill in the missing boxes of the data charts.
You will have a data chart for air, water and diamond. Make sure to set the ray to “monochromatic light”
AIR
Color Wavelength Incident angle: Reflected angle:
Red Set at 45
Green Set at 45
Blue Set at 45
Water
Wavelength Incident Angle: Reflected angle
Color Set at 25
Red Set at 25
Green Set at 25
Blue Set at 25
Diamond
Color Wavelenth Incident Angle Reflected angle
Red Set at 65
Green Set at 65
Blue Set at 65

Activity # 4
Click on the link below. Page down a little. Read the TRY THIS then click the OK button. After completing the first task, experiment with
lighting up the other objects. Follow the prompts on top of the game.

Activity #5
Click on the link below. Page down a little. Read the TRY THIS then click the OK button. After completing the first task, experiment by
placing other objects in the center of the room (don’t forget the window shade). Follow the prompts on top of the game.

Activity #7
Click on the link below. Work your way through the game. Use the ARROW to the right of the directions at the
top. Drag different angled mirrors into the path of light. How does it change the direction of light?
Try to direct the light to the tent. Now try to illuminate the bench. Try to illuminate the balloon stall.
Try to light up the Punch and Judy show. Try to illuminate the dog and the people.
Take the QUIZ. Record in your notebook your Quiz score.
