Today we had a lot of fun exploring using our senses!  First we played a Sound Guess game where they had to use their sense of hearing to figure out what was making the sounds they listened to on the SMART Board.  Second we passed around Smelling Cups where the students had to use their sense of smell to figure out what was in each cup.  Next we moved on to our sense of touch and students had to use their hands to explore what was in our Feeling Bags.  Last, we used our sense of tasteand did a Taste Test to identify foods that were salty, sweet, sour and bitter.  Please review these activities with your son or daughter and see if they know which of the 5 senses we didn't have an activity for!

(*  The answer is our sense of sight !)
