Materials
For Part 1 For Part 2
2 shades of yellow highlighter Glow in the dark stars or
Piece of paper/bond paper anything that is glow in
Rays of the sun/Black light/UV the dark
light
Procedure
1. Using the highlighters, draw two boxes along with each other for comparison.
2. Venture out into the sunshine and observe what happens to the two boxes you’ve drawn.
3. Take it to the shade and see what happens. Again take it again to the sunlight. Record your
observations.
4. You can also use the Blacklight as the alternative for the sunshine (especially if you’re time is
limited to do the activity)
For the part two…
1. Get the glow-in-the-dark stars. Take a look at them. Record your observation.
2. Now, take them into a dark room and observe what happens to them after sometime.
