Use the attached "Story Guidelines" Handout to write an imaginative story about a
person with a heightened sense! Your story should be at least three well-developed
paragraphs long. Have fun with it and be creative...be humorous!
IMPORTANT: Use the copy of the STEMScopedia for this unit to incorporate all of the
terms related to your character's heightened sense. For example, choose a specific
type of receptor (chemoreceptor, thermoreceptor, mechanoreceptor, photoreceptor,
nocicepter or propiorecepter), and then include the terms and parts of the body
related to those receptors. Weave it into an episode in the life of your character.
