Lesson Overview
About this worksheet
The eye is the organ that lets us see by focusing light. This worksheet teaches the main parts of the eye – cornea, pupil, iris, lens, retina, rods and cones, optic nerve, and sclera – and how light travels through them to the brain.
The reference box and Section A are on page 1. The reference box defines each part and includes a labeled black-and-white cross-section diagram of the eye. Section A has eight clues to match to the correct part. Section B on page 2 has four short-response questions about the path of light, the iris and pupil, the optic nerve, and how the eye is protected.
Page 3 is a complete answer key with the term for every clue and sample short answers. The worksheet pairs well with the Light and the Five Senses worksheets.
