Our Senses - The Tongue & The Flavors

My Tongue & The Flavors

Look at these faces and try to guess the flavor they are tasting!

Sweet, sour, salty and bitter tastes can actually be sensed by all parts of the tongue, but only the sides of the tongue are more sensitive than the middle overall, with one exception, the back of the tongue is very sensitive to bitter tastes.

Do you know that every side of your tongue is to taste a different flavor?

The sides of the tongue are more sensitive to taste different flavors.

The tongue is the most soft and movable part in the mouth that is used for tasting and eating food, in human beings is also for speaking.

With our tongue we can taste different flavors and also to feel the food's temperatures as cold, warm and hot.

My Tongue & The Tastes Activity

  1. Go to elementary1/second ict/2X/our senses and (according to your list number) open your template "Tongue" with paint.
  2. Open one of the "Flavors" templates in second ict, and assign every different flavor to the side of the tongue it is better tasted.
  3. Listen carefully and follow the teachers instructions.

AL Digital Citizenship Agreements - Second Grade

Children... we are all digital citizens :-)
Students are an important part of the Abraham Lincoln Digital Community, for that reason we must respect certain codes of behaviour when interacting virtually with our peers. We must be responsible, respectful and always act in a safe way.
Abraham Lincoln has an official school procedure document for digital behaviour, let's check the rules for second graders.


Class Activity - Part 1

Work in pairs, find your partner, read the "rule" on your paper and pay attention to the reading to write an extra idea.


AL Digital Citizenship Agreements



As second grade Technology users, we will be:

Responsibles...

1. I will use technology at school for schoolwork or learning activities only.
2. I will only use the learning sites recommended by my teachers and my parents.
3. I wil treat all technology equipment with care.


Respectful...


1. I will ask for help respectfully when I have a problem using a computer.
2. I will use my files and folders only, never change any of my friend's works.
3. I will follow the instructions and rules given by my teachers when using technology.


Safe..

1. I will tell my teachers or parents if I fell uncomfortable with anything I find on a computer.
2. I will always shut down the classmate correctly when the class finishes.

I understand then if I don't follow any part of this agreement my technology facilities at school will be restricted.

Look at the following pictures, read and make a reflection...
