We have been learning all about shadows!
We know that a shadow is caused when an object blocks light's path.
Transparent objects let a lot of light through and doesn't make a shadow.
Translucent objects let some light through and make a light shadow.
Opaque objects let no light through and make the darkest shadows.
You are going to go on a shadow hunt for shadows around your home!
