5 Senses

This week the children will be learning about their five senses.  Our read aloud today was titled The Listening Walk.  To help us learn our senses each day we are adding one at a  time to our class potato head.
Today we had two centers based on the sense of hearing.  At the first center the children played sound bingo.  Various sounds were recorded on a CD.  The adult played them one at a time on our laptop.  The children listened to each sound and found its corresponding picture on their Bingo board.  At my center the children experimented with hearing by using plastic eggs that were filled with various items.  The children took turns shaking the eggs and predicting what was making the sound that they herd.  The children recorded their findings on a recording sheet.
