And hear with my ears.

Sniff, sniff, sniff
It’s a ripe red strawberry!

Grey, black, white

I listen with my ears and…
Clink, clink, clink
Some small cold stones I see!

Spray Bottles
When you buy oil or home fragrances, adding it to a spray bottle of water makes it last much longer. Always “warn” that you are either going to spray over their heads. If this will be upsetting, spray it nearer to yourself & invite them to come over but don’t make it compulsory.
General Use of equipment
Always check before you use any items for allergies. Also, reassure again about joining in. Before you do something, ie wave a piece of material, introduce what you are doing so as to ready any students who are nervous.
