52+SIGHT+WORKSHOP

"THE SIGHT" WORKSHOP DOCUMENTING WELCOMING ROUTINE : //How are you? What’s your name? //

We meet the new people in the workshop and they introduce themselves to the rest of the workshop mates.

INTRODUCTORY ACTIVITY: ** BRAINSTORMING **
 * Can you remember the five human senses? Point to the parts of the body where you can find them. **

**What do you know about the sense of sight? **
==**How many of you wear glasses or contact lenses (lenses) ? **==

2 nd ACTIVITY: Le'ts learn about the sense of sight: HOW DO WE SEE?
[|Eyes and sight! A 5 senses sing-along] (Youtube video to introduce how our eyes work).

** 3 ** rd **ACTIVITY: //How do we see?// We can explain and inderstand the process of sight. **
Sight is one of the five senses that help us to get information about what is going on in the world around us. We see through our eyes, which are organs that take in light and images and turn them into electrical impulses that our brain can understand.

When we see something, what we are seeing is actually reflected light. Light rays bounce off of objects and into our eyes.

Our Amazing Eyeballs


 * __Pupil and Iris: __**

Eyes are amazing and complex organs. In order for us to see, light enters our eyes through the black spot in the middle which is really a hole in the eye called the **pupil**. The pupil can change sizes with the help of the colored part around it, a muscle called the **iris**.

By opening and closing the pupil, the **iris** can control the amount of light that enters the eye. If the light is too bright, the pupil will shrink to let in less light and protect the eye. If it's dark, the iris will open the pupil up so more light can get into the eye.


 * __Retina: __**

<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">Once the light is in our eye it passes through fluids and lands on the retina at the back of the eye. The retina turns the light rays into signals that our brain can understand. The retina uses light sensitive cells called __rods__ and __cones__ to see. The __rods__ are extra sensitive to light and help us to see when it's dark. The __cones__ help us to see color. There are __three types of cones__ each helping us to see a different color of light: red, green, and blue.


 * __<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">Focus __****<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">: **

<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">In order for the light to be focused on the retina, our eyes have a lens. The brain sends feedback signals to the muscles around the lens to tell it how to focus the light. Just like the way a camera or microscope works, when we adjust the lens we can bring the image into focus. When the lens and muscles can't quite focus the light just right, we end up needing glasses or contacts to help our eyes out.

 * __<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">Off to the Brain __****<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">: **

<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">The rods and cones of the retina change light into electrical signals for our brain. The optic nerve takes these signals to the brain. The brain also helps to control the eye to help it focus and to control where you are looking. Both eyes move together with speed and precision to allow us to see with the help of the brain.


 * <span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">Why two eyeballs? **

<span style="font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif;">With two eyeballs our brain gets two slightly different pictures from different angles. Although we only "see" one image, the brain uses __these two images__ to give us information on how far away something is. This is called __depth perception__.

My name is Silvia and I will try to show you through an experiment how our eyes work.

To make this experiment is necessary that I know your names.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 200%;">Do you remember the function of the retina?

<span style="color: #080707; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 26px; line-height: 0px; overflow: hidden;">

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 200%;">And, these are the SENSITIVE CELLS: RODS AND CONES:



<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 200%;">What´s the different between them?
