Description
Discover the magic of language development with interactive books, specifically designed for speech therapy! The “stores” community social skills interactive book is a hands-on tool to foster essential language and communication skills. These resources are my go-to in speech therapy for expanding language and students with limited attention!
Social skills can be quite difficult to target in therapy and even more difficult to work on in a motivating way. This hands-on book makes all the difference in keeping kids engaged and learning.
Target many expressive and receptive language goals (verbs, pronouns, prepositions, following directions) with a functional theme!
A great addition to your speech therapy sessions! Your all-in-one solution for teaching speech therapy: vocabulary, sentence structure, grammar, categorization, and more.
➜ The open-ended nature of these resources allows flexibility in teaching many concepts.
➜ These books keep minds engaged and hands busy – Kids love to move the pieces and be in control of the activity!
➜ They are easily adapted to different levels of learners.
➜ Perfect on-the-go therapy tool for traveling SLPs.
➜ They are easily used in mixed groups and from session-to-session.
✅ WHAT’S INCLUDED:
- Interactive flipbook: The book includes 6 scenes inside stores (toy store, grocery store, clothing store, pet store, bookstore, and ice cream store.) In addition, it includes a boy and girl and items to go with each scene. The book allows you to flip through the scenes and move the characters & objects onto the pages.
- 1-step, 2-step, and 3-step directions for the student to follow using the interactive book
- 12 Social Situations to use with the interactive book
- 9 where question cards
- 9 inference cards
- Stores association worksheet
- 2 social stories books
You can generalize or implement any of these concepts and more into the interactive flipbook! All pages are in color and black and white.
CONCEPTS TARGETED:
➜ Social skills
➜ Categorization skills by sorting people/vehicles/items into correct scenes
➜ WH questions
➜ Pronouns
➜ Negation
➜ Following directions
➜ Sentence & story formulation
Assembly of books required. I recommend laminating for durability and one-time creation and using sticky tack for freedom of placement of the people/items for the scene.
▶️ Watch this video to see how I assemble the interactive books.
