First, you need to know what the 5 Senses are. (I'm hoping you do! If you don't, that's okay, because you will learn all about it and how to use it in a Historical Fiction Story!) By the way details are describing words!

These are the five senses and what they do:

1. Taste- What you taste, it could be a candy bar or it could be the other kind of taste. This "other" taste would be if you were trapped in the attic you would probably taste fear. Are you starting to get it?¿

2. Touch- The texture of the objects and walls around you. (example: the walls were rough, but the floor was smooth.)

3. Feeling- What you can feel: pain, joy, sadness, etc.

4. Smell- What you can smell: perfume, food, etc.   You can smell other things too. Like if you hit your little brother you could smell trouble. Do you get it?¿ 

5. See-What is around you; your environment.
