Assessment Prompt

Nomi would like to learn more about what you do with your five senses. Nomi would like for you to prepare a sensory bag that contains different things that you can see, touch, taste, smell, or hear. After you have prepared your bag, tell Nomi in the language that he speaks which sense and body part you use for each object. If possible describe the object (big, little, pretty, hot, cold, etc….). You can also let Nomi know if you like to do the activity or not. Let’s share with Nomi!
