Are your students stories a bit "bland"?
Maybe we need to remind our students what the 5 senses are and what's their potential.
Level: medium to high
Materials: Rap video (see below), different sounds (use youtoube), different objects that teacher can bring.
Procedure:
- Ask SS what the five senses are
- Brainstorm vocabulary for every sense: Ex: touch: rough, smooth..
- Students listen to RAP about the five senses. You may download video HERE if the embedded video fails to open.
- Sense of touch/smell : Students work in pairs/teams of 3. One of the students is blindolded. Students need to guess what the object is. They need to describe what they feel when they touched it and what the smell is like. Preparation: teacher needs to bring objects. Students can pass the objects from group to group. You will need as many set of objects as number of groups: Suggestions: a bottle, skein, rubber band, sandpaper, paper bag, a potato, some salt/sugar...
- Sense of sound: Teacher plays sounds. You will find many on the internet. Suggestions: birds singing, baby wailing, sound of sea, cicadas, rustling of clothes, gusts of water, pouring rain ... Students identify the sounds, and their names.
