This document outlines an 11-session lesson plan on the senses for a 2nd grade class. Over the course of the lessons, students will use their senses of sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing to explore different objects, foods, and sounds. They will engage in hands-on activities like tasting different foods, touching objects with varying textures, and smelling scents around the school. Lessons also incorporate online games, song time, creating a collaborative poster, and a final self-evaluation. Detailed materials and annexes are provided for each session.
