1st grade children will do this activity and
quiz on computers at home or at school.
This activity will be attached to the
teacher’s home page on his/her website.
Given the quiz at the end of the PowerPoint,
students will be able to identify the body
part that is associated with the sense and
read the fun facts to answer the quiz
question with 80% correct accuracy.

Orientation – the PowerPoint will test the students
about the Five Senses they learned
in class
Motivation – learning about the five senses by
watching Youtube clip
Information – fun facts given about each sense
Application – diagram and explanation of each
body part
Evaluation – quiz question given at the end of the
information
Today, you will be learning about the five
different senses. You should already know
a little bit about them from class this
week!
We use our senses everyday! Think about
how many times you smell dinner cooking,


Eyes are used when you want to look at
something, like a dog or your friends.

The eye has many parts to help it
function.
Cornea
Pupil
Iris
Retina
Optic Nerve
Lens
Cornea:
outside covering
of the iris (or color part
of your eye)
Pupil:
opening of the iris
(or colored part) where
light shines through
Iris:
the colored part of
your eye
Lens:
helps your eyes to
focus the light being
shined in
Retina:
area in the back
of the eye that puts the
things you see into
secret codes for the
brain
Optic
nerve: the eye’s
nerve that sends images
from the eye to the
brain
The pupil changes sizes depending on the
amount of light entering the eye.
 There are 130 million light-sensitive cells
in one eye ball!
 Images are seen upside down to the brain!
 1 in 30 people are affected with color
blindness.

 Your
nose is used to smell
different odors and smells like
chocolate chip cookies.
 The
nose has many different
tissues inside of it.
Nasal Bone
Alar Cartilage
Columella Cartilage
Superficial Depressor
Septi Muscle
Orbicularis Oris Muscle
Lateral Alar Ligament
Elastic Tissue
Alar
cartilage: cartilage
(or hard skin like bone)
that forms tip of your
nose
Columella
cartilage: the
bone that divides your
nostrils
Nasal
bone: rectangular
bone that forms part of
your nose that is
between your eyes
Lateral
alar ligament:
ligaments (or group of
tissue) that attach to
your forehead
Elastic
tissue: tissue
that supports ligaments
(group of tissues) and
bones
Superficial
depressor
septi muscle: a muscle
that draws your nose
downward
Orbicularis
oris muscle:
muscle that connects
nose to lips
You can tell the difference between
4,000-10,000 smells!
 As you grow older, your sense of smell
gets worse!
 Odors float upward (not downward!)
through the nose!
 Nose’s pathways gets warmer further
back in the canals.

 The
sense of touch is used by the
whole body, but is commonly used
by the fingers.
 The
finger has many things that
help it to feel different touches.
Nail Root
Nail Matrix
Cuticle
Nail Plate
Distal Edge Of
Nail Plate
Hyponychium
Nail Bed
Nail
plate: thin growing
nail on the upper side of
your finger
Cuticle:
nonliving skin
surrounding your nail
Hyponychium:
the
fingertip’s skin under the
edge of the nail
Nail
bed: skin that is
under nail
Nail
root: point where
the nail starts to grow
Nail
matrix: grooves (or
tiny scratches) on the
nail
Distal
edge of nail plate:
nail tip
Some of the sections of skin are more
sensitive than others!
 The body organ used for touching is skin!
 Our sense of touch shows us the shape,
size, and “feel” of our world!
 The brain analyzes each touch, which
signals the body to react.

 The
 The
ear is the organ used for
hearing.
ear is made of different
structures to perform its hearing
task.
Outer Ear
Ear Drum
Ear Canal
Middle Ear
Eustachian
tube
Inner Ear
Outer
ear: the area
that collects the
different sounds you
hear
Middle
ear: part of the
ear where the sound
goes to reach the
eardrum
Inner
ear: portion of
ear that helps you to
hear and balance
Ear
drum: tiny oval
shape thing that
separates the middle ear
from the outer ear
Ear
canal: a narrow
tube-like passage where
sound enters
Eustachian
tube: tube
that connects middle ear
to the back of your
mouth
The ear is an organ for hearing and
balance!
 The outer ear and middle ear mostly
collect the different sounds!
 Sound waves cause the eardrum to
vibrate!
 Fluid inside of your ear keeps the balance,
so if it moves you feel dizzy!

 The
tongue is used to create the
sense of taste.
 The
tongue is an organ in the
mouth, which is one of many
structures used for taste.
Palatine Tonsil
Circumvallate Papillae
Lingual Tonsil
Foliate Papillae
Fungiform Papillae
Filiform Papillae
Circumvalliate
papillae:
dome-shape designs on
your tongue
Fungiform
papillae:
mushroom shaped bumps
on both sides of your
tongue
Palatine
tonsil: tonsils
that get big from you
being sick
Lingual
tonsil: tonsil that
helps you to speak
Foliate
papillae: area
where many taste buds
are at
Filiform
papillae: “V”shaped, taste bud-less
cells on your tongue
The tongue has 4 areas of taste receptors
that include sweet, sour, salty, and bitter!
 “Average taster” has 184 taste buds per
square centimeter of tongue!
 Flavors are dissolved in your saliva before
any taste bud takes it!
 The palate in the mouth is also used for
tasting!

