5 Senses

This week we are focusing on the 5 senses. Our big book is My Five Senses by Aliki. In the story we learned what our five senses are and how our senses help us to be aware. In the story the little boy likes to play a game where he thinks how many senses he is using at any time. For example when he looks at the moon he is using one or if he is playing with his puppy he is using three. In Math we did some graphing with the senses. This was challenging for some of the kids. I encourage you tonight when you are around the dinner table eating play that game to see how many senses you are using. We also discussed in Religion how when God created us he was very smart to give us our senses so we could enjoy his beautiful creations.
