Our kindergarteners had a sensational day learning about their 5 senses. They visited 5 different classrooms and explored one sense in each room.

Sight - they used binoculars, view masters, magnifying glasses and kaleidoscopes
Hearing - they played a fun identify the sound bingo game
Smell - Students colored with scented markers and smelled many different unique scents
Taste - Tasting jelly bellies was a favorite activity of many! blueberry, green apple, cherry and peach
Touch - Students explored many different sensory bins filled with things like sand, kinetic sand, sensory foam and pluffel

It was a wonderful way to help them connect with the world around them - one sense at a time!
