The montage shows cut pictures that describe the feeling of the 5 senses. For example, show me color, show me what smells, show me what you hear, show me what you taste and show me what you touch. Instead of show me what you see with, hear with, smell with, taste with and feel with. This causes students to think about the actual senses. From this activity we move on into the individual senses.
Hearing is first.
I received several lesson plans from both the music teacher on how to make instruments and several lesson plans from the science teacher on how people hear and the parts of the ear. The student do 3 experiments on hearing and how sound waves move through the air and water. When they understand the scientific aspects of sound, then I introduce no sound. Yes, no sound. I have a guest lecturer that is deaf and teaches teach the students that they also can communicate through sign language.
