Introduction
Introduction
Students will be able to identify and describe the five senses.
- Tell the students you are going to talk about their five senses.
- Ask if anybody can tell you the five senses.
- Review the senses and what they do, then play the Five Senses video.
- Have students just listen to the words, then play it again and allow them to join in with the singing.
Task
Task
- Make five groups with your students.
- Assign to each group one of the senses.
- That group will be in charge of completing the worksheet that goes with their sense and reporting back to the class.
Process
Process
At the end of the lesson, we will be having some activities to determine our understanding.
Task 1
We will begin our tour with a stop in the "hands station." By first identifying that touch is the sense located on the fingers we can move on to the activity. Using the touchy-feely box we will each get a perspective of what feeling something is. Each student will be able to take turns trying to figuring out what item they are touching.
Task 2
Next stop is the "nose station," and the identification of smells. As students, you will engage in an activity that allows you to distinguish the difference between a good and bad smell. With this class participation activity, you will also be given scratch and sniff stickers to help you smell different scents.
Task 3
Now moving on to the "tongue station" where we will learn the sense of taste. Using baby food you will identify each task with your matching worksheet. As students, you should also be taught the four different areas of taste buds, bitter, sweet, salty, and sour.
Task 4
"Ear station" is the next stop on our tour and we're going full steam ahead. By hearing different noises you will learn what makes what sound. Use your ears to discuss whether the sound being played is a nice sound or not.
Task 5
Last but not least you will work as a team to guide your "blind" member around the room. Learning that you use your eyes to see will help you with this activity. Also, good direction and listening skills will also ensure your success in this interactive activity. As students, you will also learn the struggle of a blind person.

Conclusion
Conclusion
Your students will now have gained great knowledge in the field of senses. Identifying things as common as senses will help you appreciate your body and its functions. The activities done throughout the week have entitled you to a world where now your body makes a little bit more sense. With this newly obtained knowledge, you should share your learning with other people. Maybe your parents would enjoy the "blind game" or getting a taste of baby food
