A Tag for the Glove Shelf

Listen to the test notes. Choose one answer for each question.

Testing a Paper Star

The school garden has a glove shelf in a dark tool room. The class wants a star marker to help people find the shelf. An adult leads the tests. No daylight or other light enters the room.

The adult puts a white paper star on the shelf. The star stays in the same place. The class checks whether they can see it from the doorway.

Test 1: The battery lamp is off. They do not see the star.
Test 2: The lamp shines on the star. They see it.
Test 3: The lamp is off again. They do not see the star.
