Which Sense?

Choose the sense we'd use to learn about something.

Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.

For grown-ups

Your child picks which sense to use to find something out: looking, listening, smelling, tasting, or touching. We suggest reading it together.

What children learn in Level 13

We have five senses: we see, hear, smell, taste, and touch.
Each sense tells us something different. To know the color of a flower, we look.
To know if a drum is loud, we listen. To know if a blanket is soft, we touch it.
Your turn! Is the milk still good? Which sense helps? Your nose! Sniff it.
Try it with a grown-up! Pick a fruit. Look at it, feel it, smell it, and then taste it. Tell about each sense.
