Using our sense of sight!

This week we are learning about a new sense - sight! This afternoon we have been learning how to look at things closely and carefully - it's easy to miss things if you're not looking carefully!

First we read a book called Shark in the Park. It's about a little boy who looks through his telescope and thinks he can see a shark! What do you think he can really see..?

We talked about looking at things carefully and observing. Then we explored a range of games and activities to help us practise looking carefully!

We looked at Where's Wally books - you have to look really carefully on all the pages to find Wally!


We looked at some photos of animals that are really camouflaged - you have to look really carefully to see where the animals are hiding!



We played Snap - you have to make sure you're watching the cards carefully or you won't know when to say SNAP!

We looked at some Spot the Difference pictures and some wordsearches - you have to look carefully to see what's different and to find the hidden words!

We also looked at things through the magnifying glasses and magnifying sheets - they make things look a lot bigger and you can see a lot more detail.


How good are your observation skills? Are you good at looking carefully at what you can see?
