Taste

Do you know how you taste food? Does the tongue really work alone?

We have tailored the KS1 version of ‘Taste’ to cover aspects of the ‘Animals including humans’ section of the Key Stage One science programmes of study from the National Curriculum. To help the children identify how each sense works, we look at different body parts and their roles. We aim to enhance the children’s understanding of ‘Taste’ by using our four STEM elements, building on the schools teaching of the human body and phonics. By including a STEM extension section, we also show how scientific advancements have helped us understand how our tongue is more than just tasting food!
