Dear Parents,
Today we explored our five senses. First, we gathered around the carpet and discussed how we discover the environment around us. We made a list of the five senses and posted it on the chalkboard. Next, the students were split into five groups, and each group was given one of the five senses. I explained to them the first must draw a picture of the body part you use for this sense. For example, the group with hearing would draw a picture of an ear. Then, they had to make a chart of different words associated for their sense. So for taste, this group could list yummy, salty, sour, etc. After each group created a picture and a chart they presented it to the class. Each group explained what their sense was, the body part associated with it, and words that go along with the sense. When each group was done presenting we hung the projects around the classroom. The students were excited to work together and create a project.
Sincerely,
Ms. Gammell
