I love combining two of my speech therapy favorites: books for core words! In an attempt to be a bit more organized and target core vocabulary with my AAC kiddos and early communicators, I am beginning the process of organizing my books by targeted vocabulary (in addition to organizing some by theme!).
“More” is a common word I teach, as it’s functional in ALL contexts, with ALL partners, and is fairly easy to learn. Below are my favorite books to help target the concept of “more”. I love using aided language input while reading!
Don’t worry, these books don’t just have the word “more” in the title. It is repeated throughout the book, sometimes on every page! You’ll have a lot of opportunities to say this word over and over.
You can even pair these books with a fun activity to target the word “more.” After I have targeted practice, I like to try to use the word in a more naturalistic setting. We always need to consider generalizing and carryover!
If you are looking for MORE AAC resources, my AAC Implementation Toolkit contains everything you need to make AAC work in your schools. You’ll get everything you need to train staff and parents, with tons of handouts, resources, and even a training presentation! Best of all, the packet now includes activity pages for 18 core words, with all my best ideas to get lots of practice using these all important words.
What books do you use to target the word “more”? I’d LOVE to add to my collection of books for core words! I feel like I’m always using these!
