Facts about Light

Light travels in straight lines.

Light comes from a light source e.g The Sun, light bulbs, candles.

Light is reflected off objects and into our eyes - this is how we can see them.

Shadows are made when light is blocked. Light cannot travel through opaque objects eg metal and wood.
