The Fragrance Wheel – Assignment

0
0

We have started thes second to last thematic unit for Grade 7 this year…. it is about essential oils and combines both Science and Green Studies themes, with a small mix of Maths and English. In effect, it is a thematic unit!

This week we started to learn about the biology of smell, what smells actually are and why we can smell some things and not others. We have discussed evaporation and the effect of heat on smell. Today, we started to explore the idea of aromatherapy, and we will end the week discussing how smell can affect behaviour.

The students have been given their first project, which will really come into play next week when we start to extract essential oils. They need to start learning the different classifications of scents, and to do this they will create a fragrance wheel. The instructions and grading of the assignment are found here:
