The brain and the sensory organs

One question raised to provoke the kids to think is, "HOW DOES THE BRAIN KNOW EVERYTHING?" After learning about the forms and functions of the sensory organs, the students tried their best to use their understanding to answer the big question. They did that in a role play form. :)


At first, they showed that the connection between sense organs and brain is linear. Neurons are in between each sense organ.


Next, they showed that the connection between sense organs and brain is like a network. One student even mentioned. "There are neurons between the brain and the sense organs."

How do sense organs work?





In groups/pairs, the students explored the parts and functions of the sense organ of their choice. They confidently explained to the class the product of their research and team effort. Good job, Grade 1!
