Think about how it might sound if sensory words were used in different places: In the chilly morning while I eat my warm and pasty oatmeal. I can smell the sweet scent of cinnamon raisin toast coming from our tiny, tin toaster.

Showing vs. Telling Instead of just telling their readers something, writers use sensory words to show them it !

Today, well practice placing sensory words in a paragraph. See how it changes the paragraph! Using the Sensory Chart, create a six sentence paragraph including words from each of the columns. Use two words per column.
