The Five SensesA first grade Web Quest Created By Julie Bonafilia
Introduction One day while sitting in your classroom, an alien suddenly appears before you and your teacher! • Can we help the alien understand what the five senses are and what we use them for? • We will explain the five senses to so he can go back and share with his alien friends what he learned.
Task • The alien would like to take some information back to outer space. He would like to explain to the other aliens what they are missing out on by not having the five senses. You will need to create a picture of an alien to show what parts they need for their five senses. You will need to write a page of a book which will be made into a class book.
Process • First we will investigate the five senses – What do we use our mouth, nose, ears, hands and eyes for? • Next we will design an alien creature. Draw an alien on a piece of construction paper. Be sure to include the five parts that are needed to use our five senses.
Process (Cont.) • Now you will be divided into groups of five. As a group you will need to pick one of the five senses, so that each of you will be writing about a different sense • Next, you will need to write your page for the class book. Your book page needs to have a complete sentence and a picture that goes along with your sentence. You will start your sentences : With my ______, I can see (taste, hear, etc) __________. • And finally you will present the items you created that show the five senses and the parts of the body that are needed.
Conclusion • CONGRATULATIONS! You have successfully helped the alien. He has great pictures of aliens showing what body parts are needed for the five senses. He loves the class book of the five senses. • He is now off to outer space to show his fellow aliens how cool five senses are and how awesome your kindergarten class is!
