My Project

The many students I work with are working on retelling stories and answering questions about stories. These big books and manipulatives will help my students to understand the story vocabulary, and characters and work on their ability to retell the story. The manipulatives make the lesson engaging and keep the student's attention. It is great for students to use manipulatives to retell the story by sequencing and acting out what happened in the book. Any help is greatly appreciated by me and all the students I work with.
