Exploring our senses 

As part of our Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes topic, we have been extending our knowledge about the body by learning about our five senses. First, we named and discussed the senses and which part of the body we use for them. We also considered what life would be like if we were not able to use all of our senses. Then, we spent ten minutes at each table exploring our sense of touch, hearing, sight, taste and smell. Activities included: looking at different optical illusions, tasting different types of food and listening to some interesting sounds through the headphones!Perhaps you could ask your child what they learnt from the lesson?
