This Earth Day Adapted Book, "I See Earth Day" (w/Real Photos) focuses on identifying Earth Day themed vocabulary and making inferences. Students identify objects by attribute, feature or function by listening to a clue and looking at real photos.
In this activity, the teacher or therapist reads through the book with students as students try to solve each riddle by identifying the Earth Day themed object and matching piece that best fits the description.
Sample Text:
"I see. I see.
What can it be?
It's the planet that we live on, so we all need to help take care of it.
(Students find the picture and turn the page to see the answer revealed.)
It's the Earth!
That's right!
The Earth is the planet that we live on, so we all need to help take care of it."
After the students have worked through the book, there is an extension activity included where they can practice creating their own Earth Day themed riddles. Students working independently may work through the book at a literacy center.
