The five senses are hearing, sight, smell, taste, and touch. The document provides a brief overview of each sense, describing how ears hear sounds, eyes see by taking in light and forming images, the nose smells through tiny hairs that catch particles, the tongue tastes with help from smell, and the skin can feel textures through nerve endings.
2. WHAT IS THE FIVE SENSES ?
The five senses are hearing, seeing, smelling,
tasting, touching.
3. Ears is something that you can hear
with it but there is people that they
don’t hear because they have problem
with their ears.
EARS
4. The eyes work like a camera. They take in light
from the thing we are looking at and make a tiny
picture of it on the back of the eyeball. Nerves
inside the eyes take a message to the brain about
the picture. The brain tells us what it is we are
looking at.
EYES
5. Nose is something in your face that you can smell
with it When we breathe, air goes into our nose
through the nostrils. Inside the nose there are lots of
tiny hairs. They catch bits of dust that are in the air.
Damp, sticky stuff called mucus traps more dirt and
germs as they enter the nose.
NOSE
6. We taste things with our tongue smelling food
also helps us to taste our food. Have you ever
noticed that when you have a cold, you can't taste
anything?

of the tongue and what they taste
TASTE
7. Feeling is like touching our skin or anything
else Nerve endings in the skin send messages to
the brain that tell us about what we are
touching, such as whether it is warm, hot, cold,
painful, soft, prickly, rough, sticky.
