Adaptive Books with a theme of winter cover fun topics, such as colors, activities, and clothing. These books require some prep work; however, once made, you can use them year after year!  

These adaptive books are created with various students in mind, as our classrooms can be diverse! I have also found even my most reluctant readers are more eager to participate in learning activities when I pull out interactive activities such as these books. While the books have eight icons to use as choices, you can adapt by providing less when reading and asking follow-up questions. 

Book 1: Wintertime Fun

Students will listen to a short story using repetitive text paired with actions. The sentence will read, "In the winter, I like to...". After reading the sentences, have students select the correct action: sledding, ice hockey, snow angels, snowboarding, riding a ski lift, snowy nights, ice skating & building a snowman. 

Book 2: Colorful Winter

Students will listen to a story with repetitive text ("I see a") and identify the item. The items are focused on winter items. An excellent book for practicing color recognition. 

Book 3: Clothing we wear

I have provided two levels with a focus on the clothing we wear. The first level is supported with a corresponding picture so students can match the items. The second level is only words. 

Book 4: Snow Day

This short story concerns the school being called off due to too much snow. There are ten interactive pages in this book. 

Do you love adaptive books & want a lot of options for your students? Then, check out my growing bundle! Now is the time to grab this bundle, as I am making many additional sets that will be included!

This is a collection of sight word games that I created for Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade. Each game, you are catching some sort of animal with the sight words written on them.

**These activities will take some prep. Other materials you will need will be popsicle sticks, glue/tape, and scissors**

Between 1 to 4 students can play this game. To play the game, you will need to lay out the animals with the words facing up. Have students sit or stand beside each other with the nets in their hands, holding them all in the same position (so no one tries to cheat). Then call out a word. Students will race to find and catch the animals with the word on it first. Whichever student catches the animal first, they take that animal and add it to their pile. Once all the animals are caught, have students count up how many they have. Whoever has the most wins.

I hope you enjoy the product. Please rate and review.

Looking for a fun way to get your students practicing social skills through dramatic pretend play? This Spooky Bones Cafe Halloween dramatic pretend play center is perfect to incorporate into your classroom encouraging playing roles of running a cafe and making the holiday fun.

What is dramatic play?

It’s the kind of play where kids take on roles and act them out as a way of exploring themselves and their surroundings. By pretending to be someone—or something—else, children can learn new ways to express themselves, share thoughts and ideas, and even get in touch with their feelings.

Dramatic play is a very important part of childhood development. Students will engage in literacy, self-regulation, fine motor skills, gross motor skills, and social skills. They will be interacting with one another in positive ways and learning so much without realizing it!

Here’s what you’ll get:

• "Spooky Bones Cafe" Banner
• We're Open Sign
• We're Closed Sign
• Menu Sign
• Order Here Sign
• Order Forms
• Bake the Treats Sign
• Frost the Treats Sign
• Pay Here Sign
• Pretend Money
• Black and White Menu Pieces (these can be used to fulfill the order placed by the customer or they can be used as coloring pages)
• Storage/Organization Label

All of the hard work is done for you. Simply print and cut out the LOW PREP pages and laminate them for use year after year.

Optionally you can add hard goods to make it more interactive. Pumpkins, Lanterns, Aprons, Cafe Diner Baskets, etc.

Common Core Alignment:

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.K.3 I can know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3 I can decode regularly spelled one-syllable words.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3A I can know the spelling-sound correspondences for common consonant digraphs.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.K.3.B : I can associate the long sounds with the common spelling for the five major vowels.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3.C: I can know final -e for representing long vowel sounds.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.2.3.A: I can distinguish long vowels when reading one-syllable words.

How it Works:

1. Students may start at ANY card with their pencil and paper on a clipboard. If this is too much to carry: Adjust the activity, by “hiding” the cards around the classroom writing surfaces such as tables and desks and have a pencil at each station.
2. Write the number of the starting card in the top left square.
3. Look at the picture, say what it is and think about what letters spell the digraph sound.
4. Walk around the room searching for the match to the picture located in the oval in the top right of another card.
5. When found, write the answer on the line in the first box.
6. Following the arrow on their paper to box 2, write the number of this card in the box on the top left.
7. Repeat until all boxes are full. Students should return to starting card when completed.

Teachers will love how easy this scavenger hunt is to set up and how versatile it is—use it for independent practice, centers, or whole group activities. It’s aligned with a trusted phonics curriculum and provides a great way to assess students’ understanding. Plus, the built-in movement keeps students engaged and focused, making phonics practice more fun!

Students will love the excitement of searching for the right answers while moving around the room. The matching activity encourages them to think critically about phonics and fine-tune their motor skills, making learning feel like a game.

Let's be honest, phonemic awareness can be SO boring for our students! Whenever we are working on it they want to use the words in sentences or want to see a picture of what that word means! Now they have a picture to connect to the word!

These cards are so much fun my students beg me to work with them! I let them choose their manipulative; whether it is play-dough to tap, legos, chips, or blocks! This also gives those kiddos struggling with blending and segmenting a concrete method to gain those skills!

The cards are broken into each vowel so that you can easily practice phonemic awareness with the vowel you are working on. You can also mix them up so they can practice the skill for each vowel!

-Includes

-vowels; a,e,i,o,u

-VCe words with a picture

-Sound boxes on the front

-The word and amount of sounds on the back for self-correction!
