Spring break continues!

David and I have traveled from Mexico City to San Cristóbal de las Casas. I have a entirely new appreciation for the country and people. Here are just a few images. I apologize for brevity here. It's hard to blog into a smartphone!

Dinosaurs! Literacy/Activity Packet

Lots of my kids really like dinosaurs, even my one little student who barely says anything!  He showed me he could say, unprompted, 'volcano', 'dinosaur', and 'stegosaurus'.  He loves these interactive books in this TPT packet, and was using the sentence frames to go through them page by page.  Yea!!!    This pack is actually 44 pages and can take some time to go through.  Supplement with dinosaur toys, and play time, and you have a winner!

This is an literacy/activity pack for a dinosaur theme. This pack meant for the more linguistically challenged students and is perfect for speech/OT or speech/special ed collaboration. This is nice for integrating literacy and hand-on activities. You are purchasing two interactive books, Dinosaur Preposition Bingo and a craftivity with an assortment of visual supports for all.
