Jonathan started his lesson watching a short video clip about rain. The video included the vocabulary words: flood, drought, rainbow, and clouds. I had Jonathan pick a topic for research todayl. He chose rainbows. We used a short video from Dr. Binocs shows for kids. This included discussion of what causes a rainbow to form. Jonathan wrote on his paper the letters: ROYGBIV. We used this acronym to remember the colors of the rainbow in order. We listened to the video and wrote sentences about how the rainbow forms when white light shines through a prism. Using the whiteboard in Teams, I wrote notes for Jonathan to copy. It included the fact that rainbows are really round but you can only see half of them because they are blocked by the Earth. Jonathan wrote notes on his page and made a diagram of a prism with white light passing through it. We watched an experiment with a mirror in a clear cup of water placed in the dark. The experimenter then shines a bright flashlight on the mirror and can see the rainbow form. If you hold a white paper up to the rainbow beams, it appears on the white paper.
