EXPERIMENT: Make Your Own Rainbow

Learn how to make a rainbow using just a few simple everyday items you can find out how rainbows work.

What you'll need:

A glass of water (about three quarters full)
White paper
A sunny day

Instructions:

Take the glass of water and paper to a part of the room with sunlight (near a window is good).
Hold the glass of water (being careful not to spill it) above the paper and watch as sunlight passes through the glass of water, refracts (bends) and forms a rainbow of colors on your sheet of paper.
Try holding the glass of water at different heights and angles to see if it has a different effect.

What's happening?

While you normally see a rainbow as an arc of color in the sky, they can also form in other situations. You may have seen a rainbow in a water fountain or in the mist of a waterfall and you can even make your own such as you did in this experiment.

Rainbows form in the sky when sunlight refracts (bends) as it passes through raindrops, it acts in the same way when it passes through your glass of water. The sunlight refracts, separating it into the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.

We have a message and we have to answer to it.

We can play a MINGLE ACTIVITY!

Ask your classmates the question!

Air

bring in the class the 3 bottles and the students say what they think is there in every one of them.
when we finish speaking about it, we start speaking about AIR and its characteristics.
Questions and write on the board:

WHAT ELSE CAN WE SAY ABOUT THE AIR?

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT IT?

What are the 3 things fire needs to burn?

How will you show that air is necessary for burning?

How does oxygen help burning?

What will happen if we put a glass over a burning candle?

What causes fire to burn?

What are the 3 things fire needs to burn?

The triangle illustrates the three elements a fire needs to ignite: heat, fuel, and an oxidizing agent (usually oxygen).

2. How does oxygen help burning?

In order to burn this fuel, oxygen is needed, as it is with any fire. The waste products from the combustion process are water and carbon dioxide. Thus, we breathe because oxygen is needed to burn the fuel (sugars and fatty acids) in our cells to produce energy The air we breathe contains about 21% oxygen.

3. What will happen if we put a glass over a burning candle?

The burning candle produces carbon dioxide and water in the form of water vapor. The glass becomes foggy due to this water. The flame goes out, of course, from a lack of enough oxygen in the glass. ... If the air in the glass cools down and its volume decreases, a negative pressure is created inside the glass.

Air looks invisible because it sends very little color to our eyes. Most objects seem to have color because they absorb some light wavelengths, or colors, and reflect others back to us. Objects appear to be the color they reflect to our eyes.
