We observed how it sounded while it was working. Once the machine had worked it's magic I gave each student a bowl full and we observed how it looks, smells, feels, and of course tastes!
Then the students filled in their own observation sheet, drawing the body part associated with the sense, and a describing word. They did great!
Afterwords, we compiled their answers, and used the most frequently used word for each to fill in our class chart.
My kids have also been DEVOURING the science books we received from Donorschoose during read to self time. They LOVE them!!
We will be using pop corn with our five senses unit this month too. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your anchor chart. Come over to my blog to see some 5 sense online resources.
I have a machine just like that and now cannot eat popcorn any other way :)
