It’s amazing how much easier it is to point to core words when they stay in the same place from week to week! This way, the students also saw the consistency of the placement of the core vocabulary- as so long as I do not move the symbols around-it remains in a constant location. It would be too cumbersome to pull of the core words so I used a strong flashlight to do the pointing. With the giant core board behind me, I was able to read this book and whenever I happened read a CORE word from the book, I would point to it on the core board. You can download the lesson plan here or in the AACeToolbox (under Downloads, PrAACtically Reading). It is a great way to think about the concept of ME as students and teachers take the time to get to know each other in a new classroom. This book is thoughtful, has great rhyme and rhythm, and is illustrated beautifully. During the first two weeks, we decided to focus on the shared reading of: I Like Myself! by Karen Beaumont. School is just around the corner and the planning begins! Our school year started in mid July.
