We then decided to carry out our own experiment. We got a large piece of coloured card and each cut out a shape to lightly stick on. We have pinned the large piece of coloured card up at the window to leave in the sun for the week and see what happens. In next weeks lesson, we will carefully take our shapes off and see what has happened to the colour underneath and see if the colour of the rest of the card has changed. Some of us think the main card colour will get lighter and under the shapes will still be bright.
Watch this space to see if our prediction was correct!....
