To demonstrate how the eye works, some of Stage 1 have been learning how to make stop-motion animations. They learnt that your eye takes lots and lots of 'photos' and your brain puts it all together, which is exactly like an animation. To make these animations, we used the Stop Motion app on the school iPads to take still images. Between each of the images we moved our characters or objects a tiny bit each time.
