The 5 Senses

We did a 5 senses rotation on Monday and Tuesday of Thanksgiving week.  Every kindergarten student received identical lessons presented by each kindergarten teacher.

Mrs. Davis helped us to identify sounds and noises by focusing on the sense of hearing.
Mrs. Campion prepared a taste test with bitter, sour, sweet and salty foods.
Mrs. Bartlett had food in covered jars. The children had to use their sense of smell to identify the food.
Ms. McCluskey taught about the sense of touch by using  feely boxes for the children to identify hidden items in each box.
Mrs. MacDougall brought all 5 senses together as the children built a senses bear.

Forces and Motion Science

We had a great time doing science experiments and activities as we rotated through the kindergarten classrooms.
  We learned so much about push, pull and force.


How much force did it take to move the recycling bin with a child in it ?????
