2. Teach
Today we learn: Five senses: sight.
Standards alignment: NGSS K-LS (domain-level; works with any state’s standards)
STEM this week is Five senses: sight: look, write a fact, label a guess, then test one change.
- We see with our eyes.
- Eyes need light to see. In a dark room we see very little.
- Never look right at the sun. It can hurt your eyes.
Scientists look closely. They notice color, shape, and size.
A hand lens makes small things look bigger.
- Look at an apple.
- Color: red.
- Shape: round.
- Size: fits in my hand.
- I observed the apple!
Go on a color hunt. Find something red, blue, and yellow at home.
Looking at the sun to see it better.
Eyes help us cross the street safely and read books.
