Almost ALL of my kiddos have expressive language goals: pronouns, verbs, sentence creation and syntax. I have been looking for a way to target these goals quickly and efficiently, with one product, using a tiered approach. So, I created these multi-tiered interactive notebooks to easily target all of their expressive language goals! The best part is, you can use them over and over again, and easily see when and how your students are progressing. I have been working on this project for months and have finally brought it into my speech room! My kids love these activities and have been asking to use the "sentence books" everyday!
I have uploaded each book individually onto TpT for $1 (for most), along with a money saving BUNDLE of all 16 books. Check out the individual books at my store here!
The bundle also includes FREE anchor charts, Common Core Standards sheet, Binder Spines and a Progress Monitoring sheet. You can find the bundle HERE!
Now, there are several options for using this product. If you have any questions, please contact me through TpT before you purchase! Here is a preview of the books.
1.Option 1:No PREP! Just print and have
students cut and glue piece to create sentences.
2.Option 1 -Binder (this is what I
use). Keep in mind, when you add Velcro, pages become THICK and you will need space to store all 16 books. I keep them separated into three 2" binders.
a)Cut Laminated pages along the top,
bottom and right edge ONLY
b)Leave the left edge in tact (for
hole punching space)
c)Leave the last page of each book
whole (with the symbols on it). This is
your anchor page for each book.
d)Cut the rest of the pages in half
along the border.
e)Cut out each symbols half page.
f)Attach velcro or sticky tack to the
individual symbols and place over the same images on the anchor page
g)Attach velcro or sticky tack to
blank spaces on each page
h)Hole punch all notebooks and place
in a binder
i)Pull out each book as needed and
have students create a sentence by choosing the correct pronoun and object.
