Thursday - Touch


I have used this exercise with young students before to help them understand texture. They have to come up with a list of texture words to describe the object and then draw it. You don't worry about the representation of the object, just how it feels to you. All of the work we have done this week has such a sense of freedom to it. It works so well to capture the essence of what we are sensing.
