Abstract

theiet.org/santa
Download our free activity sheet online to get creative at Santa’s STEM Workshop 

Oh ho ho, and please do share your experiment highlights with us @IETeducation! #SantaLovesSTEM

Watch the IET video with YouTube channel star ‘Science with Bexy’ and download our free IET worksheet from our site to join in the fun this Christmas! While you’re doing this fun and easy experiment, you will find out all about light and how it passes through different materials. You may have learned about light in science. Think about some of the science that you have learnt during these lessons, for example, transparent, opaque, and translucent. Do you know what these mean? Which words would you use to describe your edible stained glass once it is finished...and can you use it as a decoration this Christmas?

Whether you are a scientist researching a new medicine or an engineer solving climate change, safety always comes first. An adult must always be around and supervising when doing this activity. You are responsible for:
