Missing TOK again :-(

Well, I completely forgot last week that we were not going to have more TOK loveliness this Thursday because of our Inset.  Big BOO!  And we are just about to get onto the best WOK of all...Perception!!!  Well in lieu of that lesson, here's a nice little 1970s cartoon of the late, great Plato's Allegory of the Cave - perhaps the best explanation of why our sense perceptions are not the best to give us a picture of reality. 

Don't you just love the narrator's voice...classic.

Blog homework for this week - Rank the 5 senses in order from most important to least and explain why you've ranked them in this order.  Reflect on whether or not you think your #1 sense has always been the most important.  Finally, ask your subject teachers which of the senses is most important in their line of work. Make a record of this in your blog - names of teachers do not need to be included, just subject areas.
