Adaptive Books for Early Item Naming & Identification - for special education
By Until the Pieces Fit
Are you in search of effective materials to facilitate the foundational stages of item naming and identification for learners? This set comprises four distinct topics, each thoughtfully designed to provide optimal support during the learning process. With three progressive levels of difficulty for each topic, including errorless tasks, choices of 3, and choices of 8, our Adaptive Books are a versatile resource catering to diverse learning needs.
Print & Go Practice Worksheets: Complementing the adaptive books, each topic includes print-and-go practice worksheets. These worksheets allow learners to reinforce their understanding through independent practice. The combination of interactive books and practice worksheets ensures a well-rounded learning experience.
The Errorless Books introduce students to the item they are learning. Students are then provided an "I see" statement & have two pages for demonstrating understanding. Students are asked to point to the item & to circle the object. These are intended to be either printed and used or printed laminated & expo markers.
Choice of 3: The books with a choice of 3 follow the same format as the Errorless book; however, when asked to point to / circle the item, they have a selection of 3 items. These are intended to be either printed and used or printed laminated & expo markers.
Choice of 8 or 10: Adaptive books that need some prep work. All pages provide visual support and an "I see" statement. Students will remove the matching icon and place it on the page they read.
Vocabulary Words:
Book 1: Household items: house, silverware, bowl, tub, couch, stove, chair, table, rug, lamp, books
Book 2: Animals: fish, bird, goat, cat, chicken, pig, duck, cow, horse, dog, sheep, hamster
Book 3: toys: doll, football, truck, teddy bear, bubbles, ball, kite, balloon
Book 4: School Items: glue, backpack scissors, smart board, desk, teacher, pencil, crayons, bus

HUGE BUNDLE of Adapted Books (holidays, counting, seasons, animals, & more!)
By Until the Pieces Fit
THIS IS A HUGE BUNDLE of Adaptive Books! This huge bundle includes adapted books for all holidays, counting, colors and much more!
Right now there are 40 sets of adapted books included in this set worth $208.00! Each set includes multiple books giving you approximately 106 books to use with your students! PLUS, as I make additional books I just throw them into this set! These books will provide additional support and resources to your classroom all school year!
What is included?
This set includes a plethora of resources and it will keep you busy throughout the school year! I have included animals, holidays, counting, shapes, colors and more.
While many sets are made with the early literacy / early math skills in mind there are also books that can be used as your students grow their skills. I have even my biggest sellers are included in this massive bundle of 40 products!
Why Adapted books?
I personally love using adapted books. I have found them to be motivating to even my most reluctant learners. They are a great resource for such a wide range of learners as well as I can easily modify my instruction for the needs of each student.
I have used them with students who are just learning to sit in their seats and follow directions. Adapted books can easily be modified for students by providing less visual options.
I have also used them with student who are reluctant learners. They may already be confident in the skills presented in the books, however benefit from a learning activity they know they will do succeed with. It is a great starting activity!
Do you have a student who is working on identifying "wh" questions? Place a post it note over picture on each page. Read, ask the "wh" question, and your student can check their answer by checking under the post it note.
Once I have my books prepared they are sturdy, easily cleaned & stored. I store mine in a crate that supports hanging folders. They are sorted by topic and easy to grab and go. We use them in stations, with substitutes, my classroom aides, and when student want to read with peers. They are often requested as well!
How are they prepared?
These books do require some prior prep work. Once they have been created however they are able to be used year after year with a variety of students. I generally print, laminate, bind and velcro them so they can be reused. The adaptive books are designed with students ability to interact with learning material. Each book has interactive icons. Students will have options of 8-10 choices for each story.
So, why wait?

Alphabet Beginning Sounds Clip Card
By The Chatty Kinder
These Alphabet Beginning Sounds Clip Cards are perfect for practicing those tricky beginning sounds. Grab these Alphabet Wheels for some Alphabet Beginning sounds practice.
These hands-on and engaging Alphabet wheels are designed for young children who are learning to differentiate between initial letter sounds. Each wheel features both the upper and lower case letter, and focuses on a single letter and sound.
Children will use wooden clothespin and clip the words that starts with the sound around the circle. This activity is ideal for learners who are familiar with the 26 letter sounds and need practice differentiating between beginning sounds in words.
For each wheel learners only need to clip four options. For example, for the letter Aa, learners will clip astronaut, ant, alligator and apple. They will leave out bat, mixer, police officer and zebra, since these words start with letters other than Aa.
The printable contains wheels for Letters A-Z. There are a total of 27 wheels. The letter X has two wheels; one for the words that start with Xx (x-ray, xylophone etc) and the other wheel contains words that end with Xx (mix, box, etc).
The printable is offered in two options.
- A single wheel per page
- Two wheels per page
This printable can be used to strengthen fine motor skills, explore during morning work or used as supplemental literacy/math centers.
The centers are best used once printed on cardstock and/or laminated. You can choose to implement these centers in an independent way or use with small-groups.
