Using our 5 senses

Start with something students can look at or think about: a photo, a short video, a jar on the windowsill, or a question like "what do you already know about using our five senses?" Then let them work through the worksheet on their own or with a partner, keeping a word bank or anchor chart in view so the vocabulary stays available. When you review, ask students how they knew, and let them point to the part of the diagram or reading that told them. These using our five senses worksheets work well as a lead in before an investigation, as a way to capture what students noticed afterward, or as review before an assessment.

These using our five senses worksheets for Kindergarten give students a clear, visual way to work through one of the big ideas in our bodies. Students label diagrams, sort and classify examples, read short explanations, and answer questions that ask them to say why, not just what. Each page keeps the science vocabulary front and center so students leave with the words they need to talk about using our five senses accurately. Working through using our five senses on paper gives Kindergarten students something concrete to hold onto before, during, or after the hands on part of a lesson.

This worksheet is designed for Kindergarten students (Ages 3-6). It can also be used as review for early students at the next grade level or as an introduction for advanced students.
