Adapted Books with a focus on "Wh" Questions: "What" and "Who" is a set of four books designed to help children learn and practice their comprehension skills. The set includes two books with a focus on "what" questions and two books with a focus on "who" questions.

Extend student practice through print and go worksheets, task cards, and a sorting activity.

Adaptive books are a valuable tool to use with students. While the books do require some prep work such as printing, laminating, cutting and velcro; they can be used again and again! They are highly motivational for even the most reluctant learners. Each book has 8 picture icons to choose from. You can easily adapt by sharing less options with your students.

What:

Book 1: What do you wear? is a fun and interactive way for children to learn about appropriate clothing choices for different weather conditions. It presents various scenarios and asks children to choose the correct clothing to wear for each situation. For example, "It is a sunny summer day and you want to go swimming". What will you wear? Clothing for all seasons is included.

Book 2: What are they doing? is designed to help children practice predicting and understanding cause and effect. It presents various situations and asks children to determine what the characters will do in each scenario. Children can reinforce their understanding by stating what they would do in each situation. "I will... Situations include: Cooking, painting, playing ball, crying, cleaning, eating, reading and sleeping.

What/Who:

Book 3 & 4: This book is available as either Who lives here or What animal lives here. They are a fun and engaging way for children to learn about different animals and their habitats. It presents different locations and asks children to choose the animal that lives in each place. Support is provided with a hint for each animal to help children who may not have prior knowledge of the animal's habitat or characteristics.

Example: Book 3 - Who lives inside a home? Book 4 - What animal lives inside a home? Hint: I am soft, cuddly and I meow. Animals include: starfish, bunny, skunk, penguin, fish, bear, whale and cat.

Book 5: So many jobs! Who will do them? is designed to help children learn about different occupations and the roles they play in society. It presents various jobs, including traditional careers such as teacher and firefighter, as well as more unusual careers such as rockstar. This book encourages children to think about what they might want to do when they grow up. Jobs include: teacher, farmer, ball player, firefighter, police, fisherman, cook & rockstar!

Book 6: Who will do it? This book presents a problem (I need or I like something), and a solution (who I can get this from). For example, I like cookies. Who will bake them? or I need groceries. Who will I pay?

• 2 pages of sorting pictures into "who" and "what columns.
