📖 Sample Text (from "That's Not the Pie")
"It was almost Thanksgiving and Tommy wanted to make the perfect pie for Thanksgiving dessert.
First he made a lemon pie. "That's not the pie," said Tommy. That pie is too tangy!
Next he made an apple pie. "That's not the pie," said Tommy. That pie is too crunchy!
Then he made a cherry pie. "That's not the pie," said Tommy. That pie is too lumpy!"
📚 How to Use
- "That's Not the Pie": the teacher or therapist reads the book while students follow along and match a heart and descriptive word to each page. At the end, students answer WH-questions by matching the correct answer piece to each page.
- Extension activities: use the sequencing mat to retell the story, the open-ended activity to create their own "That's not the pie" descriptions, and the words-to-pictures activity to practice the adjectives.
- "This Is How We Make a (No-Bake) Pumpkin Pie": follow the directions to make a no-bake pumpkin pie in class, then practice sequencing the steps — a perfect life-skills and cooking activity.
- Place the books in a literacy center or workstation for independent practice
