Our Eyes

Picture of a garden

We use our eyes to see. Our eyes are the sense organ. We sense by seeing things around us. Through our eyes we see different shapes and sizes
(Picture f children pointing in the street with air bubbles as they talk to each other) Child 1: Oh! What a tall tree ! It would be fun to climb up there. ( they are not talking to one another but to another person) Child 2: That ball is so round, I hope I can have something like that.

We also see different colors with our eyes

( Children Crossing the street) Child: Oh! Let us wait for the stop light to turn red before we cross the street.

Did you know that western babies have blue eyes and Asian babies have dark brown eyes while inside their mothers womb? Elaboration Eyes can change color as one grows. ( omgfacts.com)

Did you know?

In 1825, braile was invented by Louise Braile. This is a method in writing and reading using dots so that blind people can feel them rather than read the with their eyes.. Braille takes up more space than print. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is 10 volumes in Braille (http://wiki.answers.com)

We can hear because of our ears. We have two ears. We sense through hearing. Our sense organ is the ear. We hear different sounds around us because of them. Not all sounds are alike. There are soft sounds that sometimes are hard to hear.
(Picture of girls whispering while there is an elderly woman sleeping in a rocking chair on an open window with wind blowing)

Why are the girls whispering? What kind of sound does the wind blowing from the window makes? What are the things that make soft sounds?

Picture of the Nose

We breathe through our nose. The air goes into our nose and into our body. We use our nose to smell. Our sense organ is the nose. The sense is to smell. Some things smell good. (Picture of things that smell good) Some things smell bad (Picture of things that smell bad) We use smelling to identify if the food we are about to eat are still good to eat. We use smelling to identify things around us. Smelling also helps us taste the food we eat better. Without the sense of smelling we wouldnt be able to taste our food fully. We use our sense of smell as well to identify places and even people. As we get older, our sense of smell gets worse. Children are more likely to have better senses of smell than their parents or grandparents.

Picture of food that shows scents or aroma.

Our sense of taste. Can you taste well if you have colds? The food you eat doesnt have much of taste or flavor. We do not only use our tongue to taste food.
