Stereognostic/Haptic

Stereognostic perception also known as haptic feedback, is the ability to perceive the form of an object in the absence of visual and auditory information.  While this relies primarily on the tactile nature of the object, it also requires the student to contruct form in their own mind using abstraction, essentially building it through touch translation.  Think of it like computer modeling in the human mind.  While that sounds rather complicated, instead, work like the mystery bag geometric solids and a blindfold are fun ways to extend previous sensorial learning, and deepen ta student’s understanding of shape and form.
