Nocturnal Animals and Their Five Senses (Lesson Plan 10)

www.pbs.org/teachers/connect/resources/7843/preview/


This lesson geared toward 3 to 6 year olds aims to teach the 5 senses by exploring how nocturnal animals use their senses in the Cat in the Hat book, I Love the Nightlife by Tish Rabe!



I think this literacy connection is a great way to introduce the lesson for such young children because the story and pictures will engage them and give them something to refer back to when examining how they use their own 5 senses. The lesson also involves the teacher cutting fruit for the class to share...they will listen to the sound the fruit makes as they watch the teacher cut it, feel and smell their own piece of fruit, and lastly, taste the fruit as they eat it!
