Vocabulary, Too!

Cut-and-paste activities are an engaging way to teach vocabulary to young learners. Every completed activity is perfect for take-home practice!

This Scissors, Glue activity book has 54 lessons, each with:
• scripted student questions and directions to elicit target vocabulary words
• a reproducible, full-page scene
• reproducible pictures to cut out and paste onto the scene

Students follow directions and answer questions using target vocabulary words while manipulating the pictures in a motivating art activity. At the completion of each lesson, the student has made a picture to take home for extra practice. Family letters are provided.
