Halloween Adapted Book | Inferencing & Core Words | Real Photos SLP SPED Autism

Build inferencing, core word vocabulary, and Halloween vocabulary with this interactive, adapted Halloween 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 on Halloween — then turn the page for the big reveal. A fun, hands-on way to target important speech and language IEP goals.

Students get 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 on Halloween?

👉 (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:)

Pumpkins! They are used for decorations. Yes, it's true! I see pumpkins. Yes I do!
