Things I Do At Home
This book uses the vocabulary and activites that might make-up a typical day at home as a basis for the reading activities. It also contains 4 picture pages and 12 sentence pages where students work on matching, identifying, and labeling pictures. Upon completion of those activities students then use the pictures as a visual aid to complete simple sentences. Students then read the sentences with and without the pictures as they become better readers, finally mixing -up the sentence order to make sure they are really reading and not just memorizing the sentence order. Like in, 'I Go To School', pictures can also be used to answer simple functional questions. (ex: Where do you go when you are tired? Answer: To bed!)
Extra Picture Cards can be used to replace lost or damaged cards, can be placed in AAC devices for communication or used to create new sentences and games!
