How do our eyes and our brain work together to see? We will explore the science concept of "persistence of vision" through visuals and a hands-on art project. I will explain the concept and students will have a chance to experience it through some interactive examples. We will investigate how a thaumatrope, or "spinning wonder" toy works. Learners will have a chance to draw and build their own spinning toy(s) to experience persistence of vision in action. We will share what we have made with each other.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to demonstrate their understanding of a new science concept through drawing and building their spinning toy.
Other Details
Supply List
To create their thaumatrope: (1-3) 3x5 cards, or paper that can be cut into a similar size (1-3) Drinking straws, paper or plastic [If you don't have straws, an unsharpened pencil or small dowel will also work] Markers, crayons or colored pencils to draw with Scotch tape
External Resources
