Lessons & Activities
Five Senses Worksheets
This link guides you to five different worksheets in PDF form. The worksheets are perfect to give to students when you have secret objects and let them either hear, see, touch, smell or taste. They can either write or draw their predictions then check off whether their guess was correct or incorrect after the activity.
Label the Five Senses Game
This link takes you to a picture of the big tongue that will be used for this activity. The directions to the game are on the blog and explain that you can allow students to learn where their different taste buds (salty, bitter, sour, etc) are located on your actual tongue. The idea is to give children different foods to taste and then have them mark where they tasted that food on the tongue.
