Your Senses

   

Anna's class took a trip. They went to the beach.
The children played in the sand. They dipped their toes in the water.
They had a picnic on the beach. What fun!
Miss Cliff was Ann's teacher. She had the children sit with her.
"What do you see here?" Miss Cliff asked.
"I see the sand. I see the waves. I see some boats," John said.
"Good," Miss Cliff said. "How do you see all that?"
"With my eyes," John said.
"Right," Miss Cliff said.
"What do you hear on the beach?" Miss Cliff asked.
"I hear people. I hear waves," Mary said.
"Great," Miss Cliff said. "How do you hear all that?"
"With my ears," Mary said.
"What do you taste on the beach?" Miss Cliff asked.
"All the food from our picnic," Peter said.
"Nice," said Miss Cliff. "How do you taste all that?"
"With my mouth," Peter said.
"What do you touch on the beach?" Miss Cliff asked.
"I feel the water and the sand," Molly said.
"Yes," said Miss Cliff. "How do you feel all that?"
"With my hands," Molly said.
"What do you smell on the beach?" Miss Cliff asked.
"I smell the salt water," Billy said.
"Good," Miss Cliff said. "How do you smell all that?"
"With my nose," Billy said.
"Very nice," Miss Cliff said. "You just talked about your senses. You see. You hear. You taste. You touch. You
smell. Your eyes, ears, tongue, skin, and nose take it all in. Your nerves send messages to your brain. Your brain is
in charge. It lets you know what you are looking at or smelling."
