This lesson uses centers to reinforce the five senses incorporating backyard science in the wonderful world of nature.

Biology 2e is designed to cover the scope and sequence requirements of a typical two-semester biology course for science majors. The text provides comprehensive coverage of foundational research and core biology concepts through an evolutionary lens. Biology includes rich features that engage students in scientific inquiry, highlight careers in the biological sciences, and offer everyday applications. The book also includes various types of practice and homework questions that help students understand—and apply—key concepts. The 2nd edition has been revised to incorporate clearer, more current, and more dynamic explanations, while maintaining the same organization as the first edition. Art and illustrations have been substantially improved, and the textbook features additional assessments and related resources.

By the end of this section, you will be able to do the following:

Identify the general and special senses in humans
Describe three important steps in sensory perception
Explain the concept of just-noticeable difference in sensory perception

Students use their five senses as a prewriting tool to guide their poetry writing as they compose free-form poems using imagery to describe a color.

Contains plans for four 50-minute lessons that ask students to use their five senses for poetry prewriting. In addition to student objectives and standards, this instructional plan contains links to PDF handouts and sites used in the lessons as well as assessment and reflection activities.

Pat Mora's poem "Echoes" demonstrates that our senses are powerful tools for literary analysis and comprehension as students use their senses to discover new ways to read and write.

The goal of the Listening and Learning Strand is for students to acquire language competence through listening, specifically building a rich vocabulary, and broad knowledge in history and science by being exposed to carefully selected, sequenced, and coherent read_alouds. The 9 units (or domains) provide lessons (including images and texts), as well as instructional objectives, core vocabulary, and assessment materials. The domain topics include: Nursery Rhymes and Fables; Five Senses; Stories; Plants; Farms; Kings and Queens; Seasons and Weather; Colonial Towns; and Taking Care of the Earth.

Students will eat up this lesson about oranges as they practice the skills that help them investigate and make detailed observations for descriptive purposes.

This lesson teaches intermediate students to "use the experts" to learn how to revise to create sharp, sensory-rich experiences for their readers.

See how George uses his five senses (smell, touch, sight, hearing, and tasting) to identify how to keep deer from eating his flowers. [2:03]

This video introduces children to the five senses by following two young girls through their day at an apple orchard. Students watch and listen as the girls describe what they hear, see, feel, taste, and smell as they go on a tractor ride, walk through a petting zoo, and experience other fun activities that the orchard offers. [2:31] Support materials are provided.

In this video from PBS Wisconsin Education and the University of Wisconsin-Madison Center for Healthy Minds, kids learn a technique to cultivate their attention through being aware of their senses. [1:00]

In this lesson plan, students use the ocean and their five senses as inspirations to create their own unique haikus. Lesson provides assessment criteria and a list of sources.

Get your sweet tooth on! Join Miss Penny and the KidVision Pre-K Kids at Jaxson's Ice Cream Parlor. We learn about the job of a restaurant server, read an ice cream menu, count and crumble Oreos to make our own ice cream. Included are links to age-appropriate lesson plans. [7:15]

This collection of resources for children ages 3-8 are drawn from the public television series Let's Learn, a partnership between the WNET Group and the New York City Department of Education. Let's Learn aims to provide our young learners with the knowledge and skills to learn and succeed during these challenging times. Our contributors create engaging, authentic, and interactive lessons that are accessible to students from their homes.

This lesson describes the function and components of the human nervous system. It helps students understand the purpose of our brain, spinal cord, nerves and the five senses. How the nervous system is affected during spaceflight is also discussed in this lesson.

Students design and create sensory integration toys for young children with developmental disabilities an engineering challenge that combines the topics of biomedical engineering, engineering design and human senses. Students learn the steps of the engineering design process (EDP) and how to use it for problem solving. After learning about the human sensory system, student teams apply the EDP to their sensory toy projects. They design and make plans within given project constraints, choose materials, fabricate prototypes, evaluate the prototypes, and give and receive peer feedback. Students experience the entire design-build-test-redesign process and conclude with a class presentation in which they summarize their experiences with the EDP steps and their sensory toy project development.
