    Our Senses

    Vocabulary

    Senses, sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste.

    In this unit, we will be developing the children's knowledge and understanding of the human body. The children will identify and name simple parts of the body as they draw and label a life size version of their friends. The children will then learn about their five senses and how our senses help find out about the world around us. We will explore each sense and conduct a variety of comparative tests. We will also continue identifying and classifying. 

    Identifying body parts

    Taste experiment

    Sound walk

    We had to guess what was in the box by our sense of touch.

    We used our sense of smells to guess what was in the cup and then discussed whether we liked or disliked the smell.
