This is a PDF poster (24" x 36") that gives a simple definition and 6 examples of light sources. This resource correlates with science standards for first grade in most states; usually a unit on Light & Shadows or Waves: Light and Sound. I used a similar (hand-drawn) poster when teaching our Light & Shadows unit in 1st grade. I found it had a fabulous impact on students using the science vocabulary, "light source", and enabled students to use the words more easily when writing and reading. This was a great tool for science and reading integration in my room!

Light refraction is the bending of light, or the change in direction of the rays as it moves past a boundary. For example, when light crosses through a window, it is refracted and can create a rainbow. A prism illustrates this theory. As light passes through the prism, it refracts and separates into an entire ...

Die aus Eschenholz gefertigte Lampe Poiju hat eine schöne und klassische Form, in der Sie Verweise auf Bojen und alte Angelschwimmer sehen können. Der Name der Lampe spiegelt auch diese Tatsache wider, denn „Poiju“ bedeutet auf Finnisch „Boje“. Für mich als Finne war Holz die natürliche Materialwahl für das Design. In einem von Wäldern umgebenen Land ist dies eine traditionelle, aber auch ökologische Entscheidung. Im Produkt ist die Holzmaserung schön sichtbar, was die Oberfläche lebendig erscheinen lässt. Aufgrund der Beschaffenheit des Materials ist jedes Stück einzigartig. Obwohl das Produkt eine Lampe ist, möchten Sie es trotzdem fühlen. „Das taktile Gefühl des Materials ist fantastisch!“, meint Designer Timo Niskanen. Das mit Stoff bedeckte Netzkabel wird beiläufig in den lackierten Mittelteil der Lampe eingebunden, der zwei Eschenholzhälften miteinander verbindet. Die Pendelleuchte Poiju verfügt über ein angenehmes Strahlerlicht, das sich besonders für einzelne oder in Gruppen stehende Ess- und Couchtische eignet. Technisch: E27-Fassung, max. 15 W. 230 V. EU-Stecker. Leuchtmittel inklusive. Kabellänge: 3m.

Shopping for the right kind of LED fixture can be a challenging task. For example, when it comes to choosing the correct light temperature, it depends on the room’s requirements. So let’s first get to know what is the color temperature for a LED component. What is color temperature? The color temperature is the numerical value for measuring the color on a warm to cool spectrum. The unit to measure color temperature is Kelvin (K) Most of the LED lights come with different colors temperatures. The correlated color temperature is also known as CCT. The warm (yellow) and the cool (blue) temperature tones are measured on a scale of 1000K to 10000K The color temperature can be best described by seeing the patterns of sunlight. It changes color as the day progresses. For example, the sunset temperature can be 3000K, known to be a warm amber, and mid-day. On the other hand, it can be 6000K which is taken as bright bluish. Using color temperatures in your home The Kelvin temperature for residential LED light fixtures is somewhere between 2500K to 5000K. Mainly, warm light is something where the temperature is around 3000K and lower. The neutral temperature is 3500K, and the cool lighting is 4000K and above. Most LED lights with color temperatures above 4000K are used in commercial institutions and hospital buildings. Therefore, the illumination is very bright and highly harsh for the house interiors. Some of the task lights for the basement location of the house or office desk require 4000K color temperature are helpful for the individual. But, first, let’s discuss the Kelvin ranges. CCT (Color temperature) Type of Lighting 2200K-2700K Mainly warm lights for areas where ambient brightness is needed 3000K-3500K Soft white light 4000K-4500K Brighter white light, best for commercial spaces and indoors such as kitchen spaces, etc. 5000K and more Bright bluish lights, primarily used in commercial locations. The best color temperature for home interiors Living room - It is the welcoming area of a residential interior. It should be bright enough for better illumination. The use of dimmers can set the perfect mood and save on power consumption. The ideal color temperature requirement is 2700K-3000K. Kitchen space - Bright light is required for the kitchen space, starting from preparing food and sitting down with your family. The ideal color temperature requirement is 2700K-4000K. Bathroom - The bathroom spaces requirement is to be more relaxed and brighter. The LED vanity mirrors deliver frontal brightness to the face for better grooming. The ideal color temperature requirement is 3000K-4000K. Bedroom space - It is the most intimate part of the home. Bedroom space mostly requires calm and peaceful illumination. The lights temperature needed for the bedroom is 2700K-3000K. Workspace/garage area - Here, we require bright, functional lighting to enhance the individual’s work efficiency. Daylight lighting is needed for the daytime and warmer in the evening. The ideal color temperature required for the workspace is 3000K-5000K. Dimming function One can control the lights with the help of dimmers. The dimming function helps you to choose the amount of light required for the transformation of the interiors. For example, dimmers for LED downlights help save on power consumption and deliver uniform brightness in a given area. The dimming facility also increases the lifespan of the LED fixture. Nowadays, the manufacturers have come with “Warm dim,” where the LED color temperature goes as low as 1600K. The dimming process adds more functionality to your space.
