These interactive books are great for low or non-verbal students and AAC users. Each page is paired with a vocabulary word. The student listens to someone read the page and then finds the symbol that matches the vocabulary chosen for that page. The interactive nature of this book engages students and increases student participation during reading time. You can easily build this into speech sessions and then send it along with paraprofessionals to review in the classroom. My paras love having
