What it is
Kindergartners learn that we have five senses (see, hear, smell, taste and touch) and which body part goes with each one. Noticing the world with their senses is the start of thinking like a scientist.
What comes next
Feelings.
How to teach it
- Point to your eyes, ears, nose, mouth and hands as you name each sense.
- Go on a senses walk and name one thing you can see, hear, smell and touch.
- Play a mystery bag game. Feel an object without looking and guess what it is.
- Close your eyes and listen. How many sounds can you name?
Common mistakes
- Thinking you taste with your nose, since smell and taste work together.
- Forgetting that touch works all over your skin, not just your hands.
- Naming the body part but not the sense, like saying "ear" instead of "hear."
