This week Year 1 have continued their learning about the human body by exploring their senses. They smelled, tasted, felt and looked closely at some familiar and not so familiar foods and used known and new vocabulary to describe them. The children engaged in purposeful discussions with their peers. Well done Year 1!
Smelly Science!
