Lesson 1

Here is a 100-word explanation for why sense organs are important: Sense organs are vital parts of the human body that allow us to experience and interact with the world around us. Our eyes allow us to see the beauty in nature as well as avoid dangers. Our ears detect sounds that help with communication. Our nose detects scents to enjoy food and identify hazards. Our tongue allows us to experience different flavors. Our skin gives us a sense of touch so we can feel textures. Without our sense organs, we would not be able to see, hear, smell, taste or feel. They provide us with information that is essential for survival and enjoyment of our surroundings.
