Human Body – 5 Senses

Human Body – 5 Senses

Hands-on Science Incursion on the 5 Senses

Students will gain an appreciation of the complexity of the human body and life in this fun school science workshop when your classroom becomes a biology lab!

In this five-senses workshop, we help students understand;

  • that the human brain detects information about the surroundings using sense organs, and how it controls and coordinates body functions.
  • the function and parts of the eye and the ear.
  • how taste and smell provide information about the environment
  • how our sense of touch informs us about our world

Online Class Version

We’ve run live interactive distance programs since 2010 and are highly experienced in making online classes engaging for students on a variety of web conferencing platforms.
