The document outlines an activity where students will research and present on one of the five senses. The class is split into five groups, with each group assigned a different sense. Within their groups, students take on roles of speaker, fact finder, or artist. They use provided websites to research their sense and answer questions for their role. Each group then presents to the class, aiming to convince the others that their sense is the best. After all presentations, the class votes on the best sense. The document provides evaluation criteria for the presentations and concludes by having groups prepare for their presentations.
