Tactile Archive

This sensory-based worksheet encourages students to describe an unseen object using only the sense of touch. Learners answer prompts about texture, shape, temperature, and movement before writing a detailed paragraph that captures the object’s feel without naming it. The activity sharpens sensory awareness, descriptive precision, and creative thinking-helping students understand how physical detail conveys vivid imagery.
