How do our eyes work?

Today for Science we were investigating how our eyes worked. We wanted to know how we saw things. 

We did a little experiment to understand what happens to our pupils to help us see. 

In partners, one of us covered our eyes, and after 10 seconds we uncovered our eyes and our partner looked at our eyes to see what happened.  We saw that our pupils got bigger or smaller depending on how much light our eyes needed. 

Then, we drew a labelled a diagram of our eyes. 

Below are some pieces of work from today's lesson.
