Taste
We made chocolate chip zucchini muffins. Each child helped add ingredients and took a turn stirring. They also got to taste the chocolate chips before we added them to the batter. While we played, the muffins baked.
We ate them for snack time and they were delicious!
Hearing and Sight
We looked at the pictures in books that showed interesting things. We also examined holograms.
We listened to stories, sounds around preschool and recordings of animal sounds. They guessed what kind of animal made each sound. Here is the PM class listening intently.
Touch
TouchWe felt objects with different textures such as sandpaper, cotton balls and sponges. Later we made a "Texture Turtle" using small pieces of the same materials that we felt earlier. The children described how each item felt.
SmellWe smelled a few different foods to see if they smelled good or bad. They were divided about vanilla but everyone agreed that the muffins smelled wonderful during toy time.
I also asked them what other things smelled good. They said: dinner, juice, cookies, sugar, hotdogs, oranges and hamburges. I also asked what smelled stinky. They said: skunks, feet, garbage, fish, socks, dirt, and brown bananas.
