Smells

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is centered around the sense of smell, which is part of the five basic senses. The activity starts by prompting the student to circle the correct facial feature that is used for smelling. Images of various objects are displayed, and the task is to categorize them under “Smells Good” or “Smells Bad,” depending on how each item is generally perceived in terms of odor. Additionally, there is a self-assessment scale at the bottom where students can rate how they feel about their choices by coloring one of three emoticons, ranging from smiling to frowning.

The worksheet’s goal is to educate students about the olfactory system and to help them distinguish between aromas that are typically pleasant and those that are unpleasant. It encourages students to use their knowledge and personal experiences to make decisions about the smells associated with different objects. This activity not only teaches about the sense of smell but also engages the students in categorization and critical thinking. The self-assessment part at the end further encourages reflection on their performance, fostering the development of evaluative skills.
