How to Use These Adapted Books:
A teacher, SLP, or paraprofessional reads each rhyming riddle aloud while students listen for clues. Students then answer the "PEEK-A-BOO WHO?" question by choosing the correct community helper from the matching answer pieces. The rhyming format builds phonological awareness while the riddle structure teaches students to use language clues to make inferences.
Students working at an independent level can read and work through the book at a literacy center or independent workstation — once the format is familiar, the predictable structure supports independent practice.
Ways to Use:
- Whole group community helpers unit read-alouds
- Small group speech therapy (Wh-questions, inferencing, rhyming goals — three SLP goals in one resource!)
- 1:1 instruction for targeted Wh-question practice
- Literacy centers and independent workstations
- Career awareness and exploration lessons
- Riddle and rhyming time in classroom
- Phonological awareness instruction
