Five Senses Sorting Activity for PreK and K
Five Senses SORTING activity: I bring in small tabletop objects students can sort into bags labeled and pictured as follows: SMELL TASTE HEAR SEE FEEL. Things I bring in and lay in a tray for students to sort include are as follows: soft pieces of cloth like corduroy or silk, a fragrant flower and pinecone and vanilla stick, pictures of things you see (like a picture of a painting on the wall or a picture of a calendar or a picture of a family in a frame, sound makers and music makers, safe small safe food items that they won't actually try to eat like a small carrot, or a small empty box of raisins or animal crackers. I also include an answer sheet for students to self-check once they have completed the activity as this is typically a "centers" or rotation so that I can work individually with students. This way they can complete the activity in pairs, but are able to work independently.
