SMELLING

• Humans use their noses to smell odors around
  them.
• Humans can smell many things, but their noses do
  not work as well as other animals, such as dogs.
• Some things smell good, like flowers and perfume,
  while other things smell bad, like skunks and
  rotten eggs.

SEEING

• People use their eyes to see the world around
  them.
• People can see different colors, recognize
  different shapes, objects, and even recognize
  many different people.
• There are people who have lost their ability to
  see, so they use their other 4 senses to
  experience the world.

4
TOUCH

• Skin helps people feel different textures,
  temperatures, and consistencies, like slimy,
  slick, sticky, or soft.
• The most common way to touch is by using your
  fingertips, but every part of a persons skin can
  feel pressure, pain, or temperature.

5
HEARING

• Ears are the body part that people use to hear
  with.
• Students hear their teacher all day long during
  school.
• Hearing helps people communicate with each other
  easily and understand each other.
• Some people who have lost the ability to hear use
  their hands and sight to communicate with others.

6
TASTING

• People use the taste buds on their tongue to
  taste the flavors of food and drinks.
• People also need their nose in order to taste the
  best flavor of food. Smelling the food helps the
  tongue taste the food.
• The tongue has different areas that like
  different tastes. There are areas for sweet,
  salty, bitter, and sour on separate parts of the
  tongue.

RELATIONSHIPS BETWEENTHE SENSES

• All of our senses are connected to our brain.
• Most of the time people are using more than one
  sense at a time, especially seeing and hearing.
• Sometimes people use all of their senses at the
  same exact time.
