This week is about being in the natural environment, sensing and identifying the sights, smells and sounds of the natural world.

What can you hear, see and smell in the natural world?

When you are out in the natural world think about complete one of the following activities:

Use your sense of sight to investigate the colours of natural objects.  How many colours do you see?

Listen to the different sounds, such as manmade and natural.

Use your sense of touch to explore the textures and qualities of natural objects such as bark. Is it soft, hard, rough or smooth?
