SEE-THINK WONDER
Working with a partner, copy the See-Think-Wonder chart attached to this page.
Now, look carefully at each sense organ illustrated in Figure 6.3. Read the key words that are included with each illustration. Then, fill in each column of the chart, using these questions to guide your work:
See: What are some patterns that you notice in the illustrations? What similarities do you notice between all the sense organs? What differences do you notice between the sense organs?
Think: Based on your prior learning or what you observe in the illustrations, what do you think you know about how our sense organs work? Based on your prior learning or what you observe in the illustrations, how do you think the sense organs work?
Wonder: What do you wonder about sense organs and how they work? What questions do you have about how sense organs work? What puzzles you about how sense organs work?
Share your responses in your See-Think-Wonder chart with the class. Add new ideas to your chart as you listen to your classmates’ responses.
