Picture Symbol Stories for Special Learners (#44402-IN)

Ages 5 and up. Build language and basic literacy skills using simple picture symbol stories. Picture symbols printed above the text facilitate word identification so that struggling students can experience reading success. The activities can be used with students who have developmental language delays, autism, and/or with nonverbal students who require augmentative/alternative communication strategies.

Most of the stories have fewer than 30 words, making them perfect for students with short attention spans and students who require highly structured programs of instruction. The short stories target words commonly experienced by children in everyday situations and in early reading instruction.

The book includes stories relating to mealtime activities, pets, shopping, sports, school activities, and daily routines. Students can also combine picture symbol sentences in various ways to create their own stories
