Close your eyes for a moment. What can you still hear? What can you still feel?

How do we find out about the world around us?

Today's word: senses. Senses are the ways our body finds out about the world.

Help match each body part on the child on the board. We will name one sense at a time.

Which part do we use to smell? Show me on your body.

We will visit the sense stations together.

Use your eyes, ears, nose, tongue or hands to find things out.

What do you notice?

Think about one station you visited.

Which body part did you use? What did that sense find out?

On your Investigation Journal page, draw one sense you used and what you found out.

You might draw your nose and the smell pot, or your hand in the feely-bag.
