Activities: daily day/night observation chart (drawings for a week); class timeline showing sunrise/sunset; simple sun‑shadow tracking (compare day vs night).

Sub‑nodes: natural light (moon, stars), artificial light (lamps, torches), shadow size and direction, safety of lights
Activities: torch and object shadow experiments; shadow tracing at different torch distances; compare moonlight vs torch light.
Sub‑nodes: natural light (moon, stars), artificial light (lamps, torches), shadow size and direction, safety of lights
Skills developed: predicting; testing; measuring; controlling variables (distance, object).
