- Invite students to come up to the picture one at a time and point to a
picture and say the sense and its associated body part: sight (eyes),
hearing (ears), taste (tongue), smell (nose), and touch (skin/hands). - Then use Image Cards 1–5 to review each of the senses. Alternatively,

have them discuss with their partner or home-language peers what
they have put onto their chart.
Making Connections
- Have students share with their partner if they know how to say eyes in
a different language.
