We're told from a young age that we have 5 senses, but we have many more. One of which is our awareness of our own body part's orientation and position.

In this neuroscience activity (5th activity on the page), learners explore their sense of touch without using their senses of vision and hearing.

In this activity (4th activity on the page), learners use their sense of smell to rate and arrange containers filled with different dilutions of a scent (like cologne or fruit juice) in order from wea

In this activity (8th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners make their own set of Braille letters. Learners use glue to make raised dots on a Braille Alphabet Sheet.

In this matching activity (3rd activity on the page), learners use their sense of smell to match pairs of opaque containers filled with various smelly items like orange peel, roses, or moth balls.

Your tongue can sense about 6 different flavors (salty, sweet, bitter, sour, umami/savory, and fat), but your nose provides a lot more "taste" information than you realize when you eat.

In this activity (10th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners make Braille letters out of cork or cardboard and map pins.

Are fingers the only place on the body where we use our sense of touch? In this activity (6th activity on the page), learners test the touch sensitivity of different parts of the body.

In this activity (15th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners use glue and cardboard to construct a maze they use with their eyes closed.

In this activity about olfaction (9th activity on the page), learners smell 10 different items with different odors, including some edible food items.

In this activity about olfaction (8th activity on the page), learners smell 10 different items with different odors. Then they try to identify the smells when they are mixed together.

In this simple exploratory activity (1st activity on the page), blindfolded learners try to identify mystery items by smell.

Are balloons porous or non-porous? In this activity, learners watch an entertaining Mr. O video and conduct a simple experiment to find out.

In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore the sensitivity of their sense of touch.

In this activity (11th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify matching pairs of objects hidden in bags. Learners can also play this game with partners.

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.

In this activity, learners investigate the olfactory system by conducting several experiments.

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of hearing to find a "sound match." Learners shake containers filled with items like dry seeds, sand, beans, etc.

In this activity (14th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners examine if it is easier or harder to identify an object if they move their hands over it.

This activity (8th activity on the page) tests learners' ability to identify things using only the sense of hearing.
