Jackie,
Yes, more senses enhance learning. Of course there are other senses that can be amplified as well, such as balance, pressure, temperature, pain, and movement. Depending on the topic, an activity involving one or more special or general sense will tend to promote lasting retention of information. A great example I share with students is how smelling a certain fragrance or odor can instantly back a memory of some experience. So it can be for students in their learning adventures.
