With the inclusion of matching both pictures and/or words, the books are easily adaptable to different ages and skill levels. Each book is written at approximately the 2nd grade level.
📗 For preschool and early childhood students, use the books during story time or morning meeting. Students can hold the pictures while you are read. When you get to the page with their picture, they can hold up their hands to put the picture on.
📗Older students interact with the adapted books for special education by matching pictures to pictures and/or words to words. They can demonstrate comprehension through choosing the right picture or word.
