Thank you ! Thanks for breaking it down for me!

Hi everyone! I need help with a mini science project that we are working on. So I have a shoebox that represents a dark attic, a light bulb (the sun), and a tube (toilet paper roll - to give light in the room). Somehow, I have to figure out how to light up the room (shoebox) with the tube (which is inserted at the centre of the top of the shoebox), while a lightbulb (the sun) moves over the roof of the shoebox to see if light will light up the whole thing or not. I can use reflecting surfaces, lenses and/or mirrors in the tube. So I was just wondering, would all I have to do is glue a reflecting surface on the inside of the tube in order for light to enter the shoebox, even when the sun (lightbulb) moves? Thanks!
