Last week, we spent the week talking about the 5 senses. We learned about how we use the five senses to explore the world around us. The Montessori environment has an area of the curriculum called the "Sensorial Materials" which encourages the refinement of various senses. As we learned more about the senses throughout the week, we explored various sensorial lessons that highlight each of the senses--the Color Box for vision, Sound Boxes for hearing, Touch Boards/Tablets for touch & Smelling Boxes for smelling. The kids really enjoyed learning more about their senses!
