This challenging Grade 4 worksheet investigates the physics of rainbows. Students discover how white sunlight is made of many colors and how a glass prism or tiny raindrops bend the light through refraction, splitting it into the visible spectrum. Multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank items deepen Grade 4 understanding of words like prism, spectrum, refraction, and optical, while connecting classroom science to the beautiful rainbows learners see after rainstorms in real life.

★ Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the correct answer on each line.
1) In Grade 4 science, a clear glass shape that splits white light into colors is called a prism.
2) The bending of light when it enters water is called refraction in Grade 4 lessons.
3) Grade 4: the band of colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet is called the spectrum.
4) A rainbow appears when sunlight passes through tiny raindrops in the sky in Grade 4 science.
5) Light, color, and lenses are studied in the part of science called optical in Grade 4 class.
