The students were given two cups. One was a cup labeled with a blue dot (sugar) and the other was a cup labeled with a brown dot (salt). The students were amazing Scientists!! They told me with their eyes, noses and ears; the items in the cups were the same. (This is why my picture has those three senses traced with an orange marker). Then we decided to touch it and share what we thought about the items in the cups. Everyone agreed that the items even felt the same; tiny hard particles. Finally we were able to taste! The comments that the students offered were very funny!! Sugar was a great taste. Salt however.... haha did not have rave reviews. :)
*We will complete the lesson tomorrow with two different items.
