**Instructions to lessons:**

__Lesson one:__ Allow the Students to watch the video clip and look at the picture provided on the page. Then encourage the students to discuss amongst themselves about the five senses and what they may be used for. This is when you provide the students with the worksheet, which they will fill out, expressing what they have learnt.



__Lesson two:__ This lesson will be based on the students taste testing and smelling different food products. You have to bring in a variety of food products varying from sweet to sour (make sure you have knowledge of any food allergies the students may have). Ask for a volunteer, blind folding the student and allowing for them taste and smell the different foods hidden in different boxes, this is when you get the students to work collaboratively together as a class sorting the food out into 3 categories; sweet, sour and salty.



__Lesson three:__ This lesson will be learning about the other three senses; seeing, feeling and hearing. A circuit is set up in the classroom where the students will be involved in collaborative group work; in groups of 6, rotating to the different stations. At each station there will be different objects provided that the students need explore and experiment with, filling in their worksheets of their discoveries at each station. The teacher must be present for this activity to ensure that the materials are being used properly and that the students are engaging in the tasks correctly.



**Make sure you are monitoring your students at all times, helping, guiding and supporting them throughout the lessons.**
