The document provides guidance to students on using sensory words to describe sights, tastes, and touches. It includes lists of sensory words for each sense and instructions for the students to practice describing objects using their senses in their groups. The students are then asked to choose a noun and write a paragraph describing it using sensory words without stating what it is. An example paragraph is also provided.

(person, place, thing, or scene) and describe it using
sensory words. Write a paragraph on that noun but you
are not allowed to say what you are describing. You have
5-8 minutes to complete the paragraph. Once time is up
we will do a class discussion.

9. Example Paragraph
 The sweet smell of sugar seems to call me in the
evenings. The lure of its deliciousness is hard to resist.
When the temptation is too much to handle, I tip-toe
into the kitchen, past the judgmental eyes of the photos
hanging on the wall, and over the cracking sounds of the
hardwood floors. The sight of those beautifully-rounded
treats only increases the pounding of my heart and
salivating in my mouth. “M” means mine; all mine! The
taste of its succulent, melting goodness on my tongue
causes all my senses to celebrate. Mmm & Mmm good!
