 We have been learning all about our 5 senses. The children had the opportunity to complete different activities linking to sight and touch. The children had a chance to look through coloured lenses, looked at interesting objects with magnifying glasses, used blindfolds to hues what objects they could feel. And explored the texture of different objects in feebly bags. We used lots of words to describe what they could feel.

The children said that it’s about not giving up and trying our best.
