REFLECTION WITH ALL YOUR SENSES
1. Write a one page reflection on observing nature with all your senses, during Covid 19 Pandemic. Go outside and find nature. Find a place with plants. Find a place which seems like a good place to be. I would like you to experience and observe this place as an organism with sense organs.
Draw in colour or photograph this place. Write about the following:
1. Where is your place. What time is your observation and what are the weather conditions?
2. . Why did you choose this place? What are the qualities of this place?
3.. What do your sensory perceptions tell you about this place?
a. What do you see? What colours do you perceive?
b. Close your eyes, what sounds do you hear?
c. What is the mood?
d. Take a deep breath, What do you smell, what scents are here?
e. What are some textures here, Reach out your hands, what do you touch? What is the temperature, the wind, is it hot, cold? humid?
f. What are the living things around you? The plants, animals? fungi?
g. Movement and Circulation: how do you move to and from this place (bike, walk, run...)
h. Do you interact with others here? (is this a path, a park, a yard, a sidewalk). How?
