Book Buddies (with a senses touch)












Why not inviting are our grade 2.1. book buddies to help us in our inquiries? Well, hands painting and feeling games. It was fun and very interesting! I guess they loved it too.

Senses: what do we feel?



The children felt different textures. Smooth, hard, soft, slimy, hard, cold, hot...

Our tasting tonges: finished art project



The tasting tongues are finished. The children glued coffee beans (bitter), lemon (sour), salt (salty) and brown sugar (sweet). They looked nice! Hands on learning!

Senses unit and other subjects












A P.E. lesson during our senses unit. What if we could not see?

Children having fun at the playground!












Children having fun at the playground and also practicing being Risk-takers!

Senses: follow up activities












Making our tasting tongues and Kindergarten 1's assembly. Nice memories of this great unit of inquiry. The children have shown to be thinkers and very knowledgeable.

Senses: what do we taste?




Did you know that we have four different tastes in our tongue: bitter, sour, salty and sweet. The children tasted and found out that!

Senses: What do we smell?



Smelling different things and sorting them into bad/good/natural and man-made smells. After, we created a graph of our favourite smells.

Senses: What do we hear?
