came to class with a big box.

ChuChu and her friends were very curious to know what was inside.

Children, we are going to play a game today.

It's called “The Sensory Journey”.

I am going to have you feel some of the different things inside this box.

Then you must tell me how they feel.

Let's get started.

Miss Dorothy pulled out a teddy bear from the box.

ChuChu, why don't you touch this teddy bear and tell me how it feels.

This teddy bear feels soft, Miss Dorothy!

It does feel soft, ChuChu.

Teddy bears have soft textures.

Can you think of anything else that feels soft?

Baby blankets are soft!

Yes, baby blankets are soft!

Miss Dorothy then asked ChaCha to pull something out of the box.

It's a rock, Miss Dorothy.

How does the rock feel, ChaCha?

It feels hard!

The rock does feel hard, Chacha.

It's texture is hard.

Can you think of anything else that feels hard?

My baseball bat! It feels very hard!

Yes, baseball bats do feel hard, Chacha!

Miss Dorothy then asked Chika to pull something out of the box.

I've got a sheet of paper.

It feels smooth!

Yes, Chika. Paper feels smooth.

It's texture is smooth.

Can you think of anything else that feels smooth, Chika?

Pebbles and marbles!

They are both very smooth!

Miss Dorothy then asked Chiku to pull out something from the box.

Look, it's a twig.

And it feels rough!

Yes, twigs feel rough, Chiku.

It's texture is rough.

Can you think of anything else that feels rough, Chiku?

Sandpaper is rough, Miss Dorothy!

Sandpaper is certainly rough Chiku!

It was Cussly's turn.

He pulled out some bubble wrap.

I've pulled out some bubble wrap. And it feels very bumpy!

It does feel bumpy doesn't it, Cussly?

It's texture is bumpy.

Can you think of anything else that feels bumpy?

The sole of my shoe is bumpy!

That's correct!

Miss Dorothy then asked ChuChu to pull something out of the box again.

Look, I pulled out a ball of cotton.

It feels very fluffy!

Cotton is fluffy, ChuChu

Can you think of something else that's fluffy?

Cotton candy! It's very fluffy!

Chiku came to the box again.

She pulled out a banana peel.

This banana peel feels slippery.

Just like soap does!

You are right, Chiku!

Both soap and banana peels have slippery textures!

Chika came up to play the game again.

He pulled out a marshmallow!

This marshmallow feels squishy!

And so does play dough!

That's right!

Marshmallows and play dough both have a squishy texture!

There was something left in the box.

Cussly pulled it out!

It's sugar!

And it feels grainy!

Just like sand.

That's right, Cussly.

Sand and sugar both have a grainy texture.

All the children enjoyed playing the new game.

And Miss Dorothy felt happy that they

had fun while learning different textures.
