Part of Lesson Plan: White Balancing -What is it, and why is it important?

Activity Overview / Details

First, place the students in pairs.  Ask them to do a "think-pair-share" to answer the following question:

What is White?

Allow the students a couple minutes to gather their thoughts on the question, then have them share their ideas with their partner.

Once the students have had a minute to share in pairs, then lead a class discussion about their answers.

NOTE*  Typically, students will answer the 'What is White' question with two answers. 

One common answers is that white is the absence of all colors.  The other common answer is that white is the combination of all colors.
