Ocean Adapted Book & Vocabulary Activities | There Was a Weird Diver
Product Description
Ocean Adapted Book & Vocabulary Activities | There Was a Weird Diver is a fun and silly ocean-themed literacy activity for preschool, Pre-K, kindergarten, special education, autism classrooms, and speech therapy. This interactive adapted book helps students practice ocean vocabulary, WH questions, sequencing, and early comprehension skills through repeated text, rhyme, and matching pieces.
This printable resource includes an adapted book, sequencing stick activity, sorting and classification activity, positional concepts activity, and vocabulary labeling cards for extended practice. It is a great fit for small groups, literacy centers, workstations, and therapy sessions, especially for students who benefit from visual supports, repetition, and hands-on learning.
This download includes: 1 adapted book, 1 sequencing stick activity, 1 sorting/classification activity, 1 positional concepts activity, and 1 set of vocabulary labeling cards.
How to Use It:
In a small group, a teacher or therapist reads the story as students follow along and match a word and picture to each page. After the book is complete, the teacher or therapist can extend the activity to other areas of focus such as sequencing skills, visual discrimination/identification skills, positional concepts skills, and sorting and classification skills by using the included supplemental activities. Students working at an independent level may work through the activities in a work station or literacy center.
