Can you answer these questions about Anthony Browne's drawing of the Elephant House at London Zoo?
What could the light source be in this picture?
What could the light source be in this picture?
How could the elephant be seen more clearly?
Would it make a difference if the elephant's skin was a different colour or its skin was a different texture?
Can you think of an animal which we may be able to see more clearly in the same amount of light?
he cant see in sun because the sun is to bright as human we cant see in the sun are eyes are going to blik wen we want to see the sun.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Melissa. We must be careful not to look directly at the sun as it can damage our eyes.
DeleteThe sun is so bright now but is just that there's not much sun shining in on the elephant.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the light could be stage light
ReplyDeleteHe could have seen more clearly if the light sunlight
If he had a different skin texture it would make no difference
A cat would be able to see
Are you sure the texture of his skin would make no difference, Edem? What coloured cat do you think we may be able to see more clearly?
DeleteIt would make no difference because his skin doesn't effect his eyes
DeleteA black cat could see clearly
You would be able to see because there is light coming down the room you could paint the elephant yellow to see him more brighter with the light.
ReplyDeleteYou will be able to see because the light is coming down if you painted the elephant yellow you will be able to see the light brighter with the light
ReplyDeleteWhat about the texture of his skin, Aliyah?
Deletea animal that can see clearly in the light is a tiger
ReplyDeleteWhat other animals can see well in the dark, Issac?
DeleteBamboos
Deletethe light is came from the sun or maybe for the cages
ReplyDeleteThat's a very good point, Mike! The light could be a reflection.
Delete1.The light source might be a reflection of the sun.
ReplyDelete2.The elephant could be seen more clearly if they move the elephant near the light.
the light source is in the picture because if there was no light the elephant want see thats why there is light
ReplyDeleteThe light source will be the sun because its shining down the elephant we cant see the elephant clearly because of his colour its not reflective.
ReplyDeleteWell done, David. The colour and texture of the elephant skin are not very reflective. What colours and textures make the best reflectors of light?
DeleteThe reflective of all colours will be yellow because it's bright making it have a transparent light to reflect.If it reflects to the to a wall and it will reflect to the bottom and it might do a zigzag light.
Deletethe light sourse is coming from the sun the elephent could be chrome because it is very easy to see it is very shiny
ReplyDeletea eagle would be easier to see because there is white on the head and a elephent
I think the light source is coming from the sun the elephant was not the only one who was clear there's polar bear.
ReplyDeleteDo you think a polar bear would be easier to see more clearly, Yumna? Why?
DeleteMaybe the sun was shining through the elephant house window.
ReplyDeletethe elefant got light because he can see bidaunt the light and he can get food ousou he will bwmp in to thomthing if he gos wer the sun is he will be blainded he might drop into one of thous rocks or one poo .
ReplyDeleteYes, an elephant needs light to see things, just like we do!
Deletethe light sours could be sun light.The elephant could be seen more clearly by moving it to the light .It would make a diffrance if we made the elephants skin glitery i might be saying this because i am a girl but actally gliter sparcals in the light .
ReplyDeleteGreat, Emily! Why do you think glitter sparkles? I wonder how the elephant would feel about being covered in glitter though!
Deleteif the elephant was a brighter coloure we could see it more
ReplyDeleteCan you give an example of a colour, Jordan?
DeleteI think the light will be the sun above the sky.I think we might see the elephant more briter when he steps in the light.
ReplyDeleteyou would paint it red so it would reflece on to the elphant to see him.
ReplyDeleteThe light source could be a little light that only goes in the middle of the room.
You could move elphant to see him much more clear.
you would see a sheep much more clear and a zebro
Great! Why do you think the light source is stronger in the middle of the elephant house, Nashiye?
Deletelight is a reflexton it means/that somthinck/is on both sides. What you see in the mirro is what you look like that's a reflexon its what you look like
ReplyDeleteI think its there to make elephant happy and not be scared of the dark and wouldn`t see a thing and crash and make a mess but in the light the people can see and the wont see the elephant and that would a shame.We could see the elephant if we put him more into the light so the people can see the elephant better and see him in lighter coulour and if the elephant was shiny sun will go through the window and reflect off the elephant and back to the window.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Abdishakur! You have explained how light would reflect off the surface of the elephant. Why would the light reflect back to the window, do you think?
DeleteI think the light souse could be that when the light gets on the pole in this picture it will not reflect i think the elephant could be seen clearer by the light up on the sky and we could move the elephant to the same place as the light and we could make the elephant change colour to silver it will be like a mirror so you can see your face though it will make a diffrents when you make a it will not make a diffrents about the texture.
ReplyDeleteAre you sure the texture would not make a different, Shadequa? Think about the difference between the texture of a mirror and the texture of elephant skin.
DeleteAre you sure the texture would not make a different, Shadequa? Think about the difference between the texture of a mirror and the texture of elephant skin.
DeleteThe light source in the picture is the sun if it was night we couldn't even see the elephant.
ReplyDeleteif the manger will accept it they could of put the elephant in a cage and the sun will go all over the elephant and people can see him clearly.
if the elephant was a different colour it won't make a difference.
if a pig was in there we would see the pig more clearly.
Why do you think we might see a pig more clearly, Miriam?
ReplyDeleteThe elephant could be seen better if the light was lighter
ReplyDeleteThe elephant has light reflecting on him
ReplyDeleteI think it is because of the reflection if their no light we would no't see him
ReplyDeleteI think the light sours in this picture is the sun.
ReplyDeleteI think we can see the elephant more clearly if there was lights everywhere like you are on a stage.
I think it will make a diffrence if the elephants skin coulee was white or pink.
I think an owl would see more in the normal light.
The light can not show very well on the elephant because where he is standing is a pretty dark place there's only lines of the light that is shining through the cage
ReplyDeleteI think the light is the sun.
ReplyDeleteThe light can shine in if there was not a small hole in the big cage and the elephant is standing in the darkness
ReplyDeleteI think that the elephant is clear and the tiger
ReplyDeleteCameron can answer this question?What could the light source be in this picture?
ReplyDeleteThe light source is the entrance of the elphant house because it is sunny
