Our sense of hearing is in our ears. We use our ears to hear. d. Our sense of smell is in our nose. We use our nose to smell. e. Our sense of taste is in our tongue. We use our tongue to taste. 3. Look at the pictures. Which senses do you use to recognise these things? taste hearing smell sight 6. Listen and fill in the gaps. 4 Our sense of touch is in the skin that covers our body, especially in our hands.the skin is very sensitive. It s got millions of nerves. They receive information and send it to the brain. Touch allows us: To perceive temperature We know if something is hot or cold by touching it. To recognise the shape of an object: We know if something is round, square, rectangular or triangular by touching it. To recognise the consistency of an object. We know if something is soft or hard by touching it. To recognise the texture of an object. We know if something is rough or smooth by touching it To feel pleasure or pain.

Write the sentences in order. is The skin sensitive very The skin is very sensitive. The covers body skin our The skin covers our skin. sense of touch is skin Our in our Our sense of touch is in our skin. 12. Listen to the text and fill in the gaps. 6 Sight is the sense that permits us to see all that is around us. Sight allows us: To recognise the size of an object. We know if something is big or small. To recognise the shape of an object. We know if something is round or square. To recognise the colour of an object. We know if something is blue or red. To recognise how far away an object is. We know if something is near or is far. Material AICLE. 3º de Primaria: Our senses (Solucionario) 5

Then correct the false ones. a. The eyelids protect the eyeball from too much light. True b. The eyebrows stop dust from entering our eyes. False c. The lachrymal glands stop sweat from going into our eyes. False d. The eyelashes keep the eyes wet and clean. False b. The eyelashes stop dust from entering our eyes. c. The eyebrows stop sweat from going into our eyes. d. The lachrymal glands keep the eyes wet and clean. Material AICLE. 3º de Primaria: Our senses (Solucionario) 7

8 22. Listen to the following text and fill in the gaps. 8 We hear sounds with our sense of hearing. The ears are the organs used for hearing. Our ears are on each side of our head. Our sense of hearing allows us to distinguish: - If sounds are quiet or loud. - If sounds are high or low. - If sounds are near or distant. Sounds are vibrations that move through the air. 23. Look at the picture. Which things are producing sound? Now answer the questions: a. What organs do we use to hear with? Ears. b. What are the parts of the ear? Name them. The outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear. c. What animal is similar to the cochlea? Snail. 8 Material AICLE. 3º de Primaria: Our senses (Solucionario)

9 26. Listen, look and label the picture Eardrum 4. Little bones 5. Cochlea 1. Ear 6. Auditory nerve 2. Ear canal Ear diagram courtesy NASA 27. Now use the text to put these words in the correct order according to how the process of hearing works. Sound, ear canal, eardrum, little bones, cochlea, auditory nerve, brain. 28. Listen and fill in the gaps. 12 The sense of taste is located in our mouth. The main organ used for taste is the tongue. The tongue has lots of little taste buds. We use taste buds to distinguish the flavours of what we eat and drink. We distinguish four different flavours: sweet, salty, sour and bitter. The nerves send the information to the brain and the brain tells us if it is sweet, bitter, salty or sour. Material AICLE. 3º de Primaria: Our senses (Solucionario) 9

10 29. Look at these foods and drinks. How do they taste? Sweet Sour Bitter Salty 32. Answer the following questions about the sense of taste: a. What are the names of the little bumps on your tongue that allow you to recognise flavours? Taste buds. b. What are the four main flavours? Bitter, salty, sour, sweet c. Where is the sense of taste? In the mouth 34. Listen and repeat the following words. Then listen to the text and fill in the gaps. 14 We detect different smells with our sense of smell. Our sense of smell is in our nose. The area that perceives smell is in the olfatory region. It is inside the nose. We know if something smells nice or olfactory region The nose has two external openings called nastry. When we breathe, air goes in the nostrils, through the nostrils, and into the nasal cavity. The olfactory nerves carry the smell to the brain. 10 Material AICLE. 3º de Primaria: Our senses (Solucionario)

11 35. Now listen to the text again and put the words in order according to how smells travel through the nose to the brain. 14 Breathe, nostrils, nasal cavity, olfactory region, olfactory nerves, brain 37. Write if the following sentences are true (T) or false (F). a. The cochlea is inside your nose. False b. The area which perceives smells is the nasal cavity. False c. The olfactory region is a part of your nose. True d. The nose has two external openings called taste buds. False 38. Which of the following things can you identify by smelling? Circle. oranges pencil coffee cheese car shirt flower 42. Write sentences for each picture. Then write more sentences with your partner. Read them to rest of the class You must shower everyday. 2. you must protect your skin with suncream. 3. you must wash your hands after going to the toilet and before you eat.
