Five Senses Observations

Observation is the foundation of the scientific method and our five senses enable us to make a range of different observations about the world around us.

Go on a "sense" walk with your students outside the school building or to a local park. Model how to describe your observations using all five senses.

Then, ask your students to describe what they see, hear, smell, touch, and taste. Assign the Five Senses Observation activity to have students capture their observations with text, painted artwork, photos, stickers, and voice narration.
