Dental Health Adapted Book | Inferencing & Core Words | Real Photos SLP SPED

Build inferencing, core word vocabulary, and dental health vocabulary with this interactive Dental Health Peek and Seek Book featuring real photos! Students listen to a clue, peek through the hole to see just a small part of the hidden photo, make their best guess about what they see at the dentist — then turn the page for the big reveal. A fun, hands-on way to target important speech and language IEP goals.

This adapted book, "What Do You See at the Dentist?," gives students lots of repetition with the core words "what," "you," "I," and "see" — and the real photos support students who benefit from realistic images.

📖 Sample Pages

Look! Seek! Take a peek! What do you see at the dentist?

👉 (Students peek through the peep hole and make an inference from the part of the photo they can see.)

(Turn the page for the reveal:)

A chair! It's where the patient sits. Yes, it's true. I see a chair. Yes I do!

Look! Seek! Take a peek! What do you see at the dentist?

👉 A light! It helps the dentist see our teeth. Yes, it's true. I see a light. Yes I do!

(See photos for more examples.)
