(1) review the parts of the wave (crest, trough, wavelength, amplitude, frequency)
(2) explain that light travels faster than sound, and give an example from nature (lightning/thunder)
(3) understand that, unlike sound waves, light can travel through a vacuum because it does not require a medium.
(4) explain that white light is made up of all of the colors (learn ROY G BIV)
(5) explain simple questions on the reflective property of light.

I have the following video from youtube that I'll be showing in class tomorrow:
Lightning with Thunder Delay
Below are the worksheet and answers:
