I am a future teacher and we have been asked to think of an interesting topic 
we'd like to teach someday.  Optical illusions have always interested me and I 
think children will enjoy them as well.  Is there a way to explain the concepts 
to a child in the 4th-6th grade so that they'll understand?  Any suggestions for 
activities is greatly appreciated.  Thank you!
