Students will work in small groups to identify items in closed boxes using their senses. Each of the 5 boxes will contain a different pair of items related to one of the 5 senses: sight, sound, taste, smell, or touch. Students will record their guesses on a chart. Flashcards depicting the sense will help students identify the items. Finally, the class will discuss how senses help in daily life and the teacher will introduce a song about the 5 senses to reinforce the lesson.

1. ANNEX 1: EXPLANATION OF THE ACTIVITY
This will be the first activity we will do to introduce the topic. Students will be in small
groups (4-5 children) and each group will have 5 little closed boxes filled with different
items to be identified. The items to be identified will be the same for every group.
These items could be:
 1st box: pieces of apple and orange
 2nd box: a bell and a small doorbell
 3rd box: a piece of cotton and a piece of something scratchy
 4th box: a perfume and a rose
 5th box: a photo and a page of a newspaper or magazine
When they will be in groups, they will need to discuss which objects are inside the
boxes and they will need to complete a chart like the one is added bellow:
As for help, they will have different flashcards like the ones that are attached:

2. Finally, we will put the charts in common and we will talk, as a group, how the senses
help us in our daily life and at the end of the class, the teacher will introduce the song
“MY SENSES” using the following link:
