Fall Adapted Book | "Where Is the Hay?" | Wh Questions, Position Words & Sequencing
Make fall speech therapy and special education lessons FUN and ENGAGING with this interactive fall-themed adapted book that teaches "Where" questions, position words, fall vocabulary, matching skills, story sequencing, and basic comprehension!
In "Where Is the Hay?", students follow along as cute woodland animals search for the missing hay — using position words (under, behind, beside, on top of) as they look in different places.
Perfect for speech therapy, special education, autism classrooms, AAC users, and emerging communicators, this engaging adapted book builds receptive and expressive language, position concept vocabulary, and Wh-question comprehension through repetitive predictable text and hands-on matching pieces. BONUS: includes a sequencing stick activity for story retelling practice!
★ Perfect for: Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), Special Education Teachers, Autism Classrooms, Self-Contained Classrooms, Resource Rooms, Life Skills Classes, Paraprofessionals, Early Childhood, PreK, Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st Grade, and 2nd Grade
