Making Sense of Our Senses - Optical Illusions

We have learned how we use our five senses of hearing (ears), sight (eyes), touch (through our skin), taste (tongue), and smell (nose) to make sense of our world.  We learned how our senses can sometimes trick us, through experiments with smelling and taste.  We completed an optical illusion art project, combining primary and secondary colours, patterns, fine motor skills of tracing and cutting and tissue paper art.  Do you see the vase holding a flower or the silhouetted profiles of two faces?  Students also created I Spy...mini-books, creating clues using their senses.
