VCSSU080
Light from a source forms shadows and can be absorbed, reflected and refracted
VCSIS082
With guidance, pose questions to clarify practical problems or inform a scientific investigation, and predict what the findings of an investigation might be based on previous experiences or general rules

AC9S5U03
Identify sources of light, recognise that light travels in a straight path and describe how shadows are formed and light can be reflected and refracted
AC9S5I01
Pose investigable questions to identify patterns and test relationships and make reasoned predictions
AC9S5I02
Plan and conduct repeatable investigations to answer questions, including, as appropriate, deciding the variables to be changed, measured and controlled in fair tests; describing potential risks; planning for the safe use of equipment and materials; and identifying required permissions to conduct i
