Sense Of Sight
Sight: We will begin by exploring our sense of sight. Through various activities and games, we will learn about the importance of our eyes and how they help us see.. From identifying different colors to spotting hidden objects, we'll exercise our sight to enhance our observation skills!
Lesson 2:
Sense Of Taste
Taste: Now it's time to dive into our sense of taste! Through taste tests and food experiments, we will explore the wonders of flavors and the taste buds on our tongues. We'll identify sweet, sour, bitter, and salty tastes, and even discover how our sense of smell plays a role in our perception of taste.
Lesson 3:
Sense Of Smell
Smell: Our sense of smell will take center stage as we explore various scents and odors. Through smelling games and fun experiments, we'll learn about different smells.
Lesson 4:
Sense Of Touch
Touch: Next we'll focus on our sense of touch. Through tactile activities and sensory games, we will discover the wide range of textures that surround us. From soft and smooth to rough and bumpy, our sense of touch enables us to differentiate between different objects and feel the world around us.

Hello, my name is Jacki, and I am thrilled that you have chosen me to be a part of your child's educational journey.
I have been a homeschooling mom for more than a decade and have taught other children, formally, in a classroom setting as well. I love to work with elementary-aged students in all subjects, including English, Science, Math, and History.
I have a passion for teaching! I believe that children learn best in a fun and entertaining environment, which is why you will often find me singing, dancing, and making a "fool" of myself.
I believe that every child is intelligent, it's my job, as a teacher, to bring that quality out into the open for everyone to see.
"Everybody is a genius. but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."
-Albert Einstien
In my spare time, you will find me traveling the world with my family. We have been to 48 U.S states and plan to travel abroad soon. I'm always up for an adventure.
