FC: The Five Senses | by Jim Holland
1: Our eyes observe colors, motion, and shapes. | I see a double rainbow. | The colors of fall are beautiful. | Seeing...
2: Smelling | The skunk smells awful to keep predators away. | Mom's pies smell delicious. | Our noses pick up scents- both pleasant and awful.
3: Construction zones are very loud! | Hearing | The sound of the cello is smooth and pleasant. | Sound waves vibrate our eardrums to allow us to "hear."
4: Lemons taste sour and bitter. Cheesecake tastes sweet! | Tasting | Taste buds on our tongue allow us to distinguish among five distinct tastes.
5: Receptors on our skin, hair, and other places allow us to sense changes in pressure, itching, temperature, and more. | Touch | The water soothes my aching feet. The cactus hurts to touch.
