The Senses

In science we have been experimenting with our senses.

Last week we used our sense of taste but removed our sense of smell to guess what the flavour of the  crisps were.

This week we used our taste buds on the different parts of our tongue  to taste salty, sour, bitter and sweet.

We also did another taste test,  removing our sense of sight to guess the flavour of the skittles.

We have set up an investigation to find out what plants really need to grow.
