Texturize your Writing


Discover ways to add texture to your writing.  Trace stones with your fingers.  Find smooth and compare it to . . . . Then rub the edges of petals.  Do leaves return a rubbery response?

Find bouncy in branches.








Decide if pollen feels like satin strips or granules of sand?  How does the magenta taste?  Describe mushiness.
Compare rose petals to man-made materials. Play with words: crinoline, organdy, gabardine.  What sounds do they suggest? What if you explored them with your toes?

Find a minty taste of sepals?  Do daisies taste like fried eggs?






Creative Write: Gather and glide into textures you've never explored.


Include: odd sounds, earth scents, tastes of sweet and sour, and a kaleidoscope of colors.



Mix and match to texturize your writing.  Use your fingers and your toes to adventure into texture.
