A set of 4 cards that can be cut apart in order for students to use or refer back to in class. The students start at the star and trace their finger along the shape as they take a breath in, hold, and then out. This is the same strategy that is used with the ZONES curriculum.

Talk about different texture words. Write those in the handprint. Have the students feel different objects in a closed box by sticking their hand in there and not looking. Have the student write what the object feels like in one column. In the other column have them name the object that they think it is. After you have done all the objects, pass them around for the to see and feel once again. Talk about if the item was what they thought it was. Does it feel differently now that they can see it?
