Slide Deck

Welcome to My Sensory Superpowers!

Introduce the concept of senses in a fun and engaging way. Ask students what their favorite sense is and why.

Exploring Our Senses

Show images that depict the five senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. Engage students by asking them to point to items that relate to each sense.

What Do You Like?

Discuss sensory preferences. Explain that each person might like certain sensations more than others. Ask students to raise their hands if they like a particular sense.

Senses and Feelings

Link sensory experiences to feelings. Use simple words and pictures to show that different sensations can make us feel happy, calm, or even a bit scared sometimes.

Let’s Share!

Encourage interaction by asking the children what sensory experience made them feel a particular emotion. Facilitate discussion and maintain a safe, respectful environment.

You Are a Sensory Superhero!

Wrap up the slide deck by summarizing the day’s learning and reinforcing the idea that our sensory superpowers make us unique and help us understand our feelings.
