Description

The purpose of this webpage is to provide a resource for Early Childhood learning of the five senses. Students will discover information, interact with the computer, view videos regarding the senses, and test their knowledge and learning about the five senses. Students will need a very basic understanding of computers in order to use this resource. The time required to implement this project can vary according to classroom need. This project could be used as a supplement for the five senses unit, which consists of several lessons. It could also be used as a center/one-time learning experience or enrichment project. If this project is used for whole class instruction, then it should be done in a computer lab setting.
