Lesson 6
Children can see the iris, ocellus and other parts of their bodies in a mirror. This will help them to understand how they feel and look. They can also draw their eye using observational drawings and the mirror. They can use observational drawing and mirrors to find different shades of white in the iris or black in central.

How To
How to make wood joints
This tutorial will help you join two pieces of wooden together. We will use the "pockethole joint," which means that we drill holes in the wooden pieces and then glue them together. This method works great if your wood is straight and smooth. Try dowel joinery instead if your wood doesn't look straight. These are the steps
-
Drill Pocket Hole Joints. First, measure the area where you wish to place the pocket joint. Then drill 3/4 inch deep holes into the ends of each piece of wood using a jig saw or handheld drilling machine.
-
Sand Smooth. Sanding the wood's edges will help ensure that the joint won't split later.
-
Glue Together Apply glue to both ends of the wood. Allow the wood to rest for five minutes before clamping it together.
-
Connect the pieces. After the glue has dried properly, clamp the pieces together to make sure they are flush.
-
Trim Joinery. After the glue dries completely, trim off any excess wood around the joint.
To be able to turn the pieces inside-out, leave enough room between them.
