Taste And Smell

 For science this term we have been learning about taste and smell. We had to go in groups and try different types of food. The first week we did Taste and the second we did smell. Are aim was to see if we could guess the food buy the taste of it. 

For the smell one we had to block are nose to see if we could guess what fruit it was without smelling it. We had to get our fruit then have one person in the group close there eyes and block there nose and then the other person would pick a fruit and put it in there had then the person trying the fruit would guess what it was and then do it all over again with a different peace of food. 

For the taste one all you had to do was close your eyes well the other person puts it in you hand once you put the food in your mouth you were allowed to open your eyes and try and guess my Group did okay with this but we did get a few wrong the easiest one two guess was the orange flavor. Once we had finished doing all the other activities with a group we had to do one by our self we had to try and guess which side of the tongue is Sweet, Sour, Salty and bitter. It was really hard to figure out what part of your tongue was which but i did it in the end. 

We had to put baking powder,Salt,Sugar and citric acid. All the taste and smell experiments have been all really fun.

    I am pleased you enjoyed these experiments.
    Did you know that your tongue had different taste regions before you did the salty/sweet/bitter/sour test?
    Keah I am very pleased with your positive attitude to your learning. Well done.
