Answer:

How (and Why) I Teach Optical Illusions



Every year in Geometry, I spend a class period “playing” with optical illusions.  I usually spend one full 45-minute lesson on optical illusions (bellwork, homework questions, and everything as well).  I know that there usually isn’t a lot of time for fun because there is so much pressure around testing.

Why I Teach About Optical Illusions

I think that this lesson serves an important purpose in class and just in life in general.  The main objective that I’m trying to drive home with this lesson is that you can’t always trust your eyes.  I talk about how in math (and in life!), we can’t just take things at face value, they must be proven.  Also, we can’t just make up our own rules, they must be agreed upon rules/laws/theorems so that everyone can come to the same conclusion.  I use optical illusions as a fun way to drive this point home.

I teach this lesson at different points in the school year, depending on what I feel like doing that year.  I do this lesson at one of three times in the year.

The first day of school (as a fun intro to Geometry)

Sometime in the first week or so of school (usually right before I introduce congruence)

Right before we start proofs (and I emphasize the point about proving things with rules)
