The Snail and the Whale 2 Word Level Pack with Paperback Book

“The Snail and the Whale” book + rhyming lotto + picture cards + tips to help your child understand and use more words related to animals and places.

The book is a brand new paperback book, measuring approximately 11” by 10”, and has 28 pages featuring the snail and whale on a journey, with rhyming text.

The rhyming lotto has a baseboard (approximately A4 size) and 12 pictures that rhyme and relate closely to the book, all laminated in non-reflective Matt plastic.

The picture characters are of a whale (with a snail on its tail), turtle, monkey, crab, seagull and parrot, all laminated in non-reflective Matt plastic and attached to a baseboard with Velcro dots, that are compatible with PECS products (Picture Exchange Communication System).

There is 1 placeboard, A4 size, of a sea scene, with Velcro dots positioned on the sea, the beach, the tree and the sky, laminated and backed with card for extra durability.

There is a pack of 12 picture instruction cards, measuring approximately 5” x 3.5”, featuring each of the animals/birds in 2 of the places (e.g. the seagull in the tree, the crab on the beach), laminated in non-reflective Matt plastic and held together with an elastic band.

The resources are designed to help children understand use language at the 1 word level (where is the WHALE?) and the 2 word level (put the PARROT in the SKY; the TURTLE is SWIMMING).

Finally there is an A4 advice sheet, laminated in non-reflective Matt plastic, with tips for using the resources to boost your child’s speech and language, gained from my 30 years work as a Speech and Language Therapist (now retired).

The picture resources and advice sheet fit into an A4 size popper bag, labelled with a brown parcel tag ,for convenience and durability.

This resource extends the language-boosting potential of a well-loved book, and I recommend it for use with children with delayed language, children learning English, and children with Autism.
