Interactive books for children utilize the power of visual strategies so beginning readers can learn to associate pictures with words. Students move and attach picture cards with velcro fasteners to match, identify, label, sequence and create sentences while learning to read! These kids’ interactive books are fun and rewarding for children with and without special needs.

How Many? teaches students to match, identify, label and sequence numbers 1-12. There are 4 picture pages and 12 sentence pages from which students learn to read number words one through twelve and simple nouns (ex: six suns). Quantity concepts are taught by matching number to picture and picture to number. (ex: Have the student put the number "2" card on the picture that has 2 "shoes" or the student picks a picture card, counts the items and places it on the appropriate number card.) Simple math activities can also be performed. (ex: Using the picture cards: 2 shoes + 3 pigs= ? Answer: the number card 5) or (ex. Using the number cards: 3 + 4=? Answer: the student finds the picture card of 7 balloons).
