We have been learning about the senses that our body has. We looked at smell and had great fun experimenting with using our nose without using our eyes. We had 10 different smells to try and guess including washing powder, mint, lemon, shower gel, vinegar, vanilla, coconut, coffee, soy sauce and blackcurrant juice. The easiest ones to guess were coffee and lemon. Vinegar was the one that divided people, some hated it and some loved it.

We have also written facts about all the senses and are in the process of making up our own non-fiction books on the human body. We are going to add in a blurb, a contents page, index and glossary. We have done our front cover already and can’t wait to add more pages.
