Welcome to the Course

Have you ever wondered why one pupil in your class is instantly distracted by the rustle of a sheet of paper, while another carries on working despite construction work going on next to the school? Or why one person happily bites into a lemon while another shudders at the thought?

With the interactive lesson series “Discover Your Senses,” you will take pupils (7-12 yrs old) on a fascinating journey through their own bodies. The series goes far beyond the traditional five senses, introducing pupils to no fewer than eight.

What will you be doing?

This series is full of action, experiments, and reflection, with hands-on experience at its heart. Here are just a few highlights from the lessons:

  • The Great Taste Mix-Up:
    Discover why you cannot tell the difference between a potato and an apple when your nose is pinched shut.
  • Texture Detectives:
    Explore materials such as slime and investigate the effect of itchy clothing labels.
  • The Balance Challenge:
    Test your vestibular system and discover how your muscles and joints, working through your sense of movement, help keep you upright.
  • A Look Inside:
    Learn to tune in to interoception, your inner sense of what is happening inside your body, such as your heartbeat, hunger, or a full bladder.
