Christmas Adapted Book "Santa Brought a Sweater"
This Christmas Adapted Book, "Santa Brought a Sweater," is packed full of hands-on learning!
This book focuses on the Wh- Questions, "Which" and "Who?," making inferences, the concept of wants/needs, and even incorporates some Christmas social skills (saying Thank You!)
In a small group the teacher or therapist reads the story as students follow along and make inferences using the clues provided. Students will match a sweater, and the person who received it to each page.
