Happy last week of January! Here is the latest 'verb' book---all about pandas. Pandas are very cute, and if my daughters were still little, they would probably want a pet baby one. That's impossible, so for all of you who work with little kids, here's the next best thing---a book full of cute panda pictures.
For speech therapy purposes, each page has the panda (or pandas) as the constant noun, with a different verb accompanied by an adorable picture illustrating that verb. I've also made a page of Boardmaker icons so kids that need to match verb icon to the appropriate page can do so. You can laminate it all, attach velcro, and have fun. Find a stuffed panda to have the kids act it all out.
I created this on
Tarheel Reader. You can go there to see it, or you can download from the following links:

Thanks! We once considered relocating to Austin. How is it down there in the schools?
DeleteI found you through the Liebster award post. I really love your blog and I'm your newest follower!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your nice words. I like your blog too!
DeleteYou aren't considering moving to Austin any more right??? I LOVE pandas! Too cute! I gotta print this at school!!!
ReplyDeleteNot Austin, but I wouldn't mind a temp job in Portland when I retire. It would be fun to live there for 3 months.
DeleteI just want to tell you how much I love your printable books. I use them all the time. I am a speech pathologist who works in the school setting. One of my assignments is working with a preschool assistive technology class (the kids all use AT devices to help them communicate). I'm in charge of running a "literacy group" and I often adapt your stories so that the students can read them with their devices. FYI - I always credit you on the front of the book so it is known who originally created the book. Then I write "adapted by (my name). I hope that is okay. Please let me know if I should be doing anything else. If you want to give me your email address, I can email you one of the books that I have adapted so that you can see. Anyway, thanks for all the great books!! You are so creative! :)
ReplyDeleteHi! Thanks for your nice comments. I'm so happy that you find the books useful, and what you are doing is totally fine. If these help kids become better communicators and readers, that's great!
