You might have noticed that the Thermic Tablets do not appear in the Sensorial table of contents. This is because I don't feel that it is a well designed work. The tablets are not different temperatures, they are all room-temperature. What the child perceives when using the material is the difference in the various tablets' ability to conduct heat away from the child's body. What's more, the tablet have different textures. While you might mix up the glass and the metal, the rest are pretty easy to tell apart.
So, there you go. I don't like this work and I wouldn't use it in my classroom. If you disagree, feel free to email me you thoughts on the subject, or just post them right here under these paragraphs.
