Small Picture Books
Small books can be created with a picture and words on each page. You can choose to make a full-page size book, half-page size books, and quarter-page size books. To make the half-page or quarter-page size book, each page of this pdf will need to be cut, placed in order, and stapled.
Books may show sequence pictures of a published story read, social story, list of related pictures, speech words for a student to practice, or recall event activities. Here are some ideas of small books you can create:
- Nursery Rhyme Books - Children "read" memorized stories and associate their spoken words to printed pictures and words.
- Concept Stories - Children can read memorized books of concepts such as colors, numbers, lifecycles, vocabulary, etc.
- Retelling Stories - Children use picture cues in their own small book to recall story details from their beloved story such as fairy tales or popular children's books.
- Letter Books - Children can read books that contain pictures that start with the focus letter.
- Articulation Books - Children can read books with pictures of targeted speech words for practice. For example a book may be made with /ch/ words or final d words.
- Language List Books - Children can read their book with language related to a theme such as "My Favorite Food" or "Clothing".
- Song Books - Teachers and Children can learn and sing along with books with pictures from popular children's songs.
- Photo Books - Children and Adults with Dementia / Alzheimers can read books with photos of familiar faces such as new classmates, family members, or doctors and therapists.
