NURSERY RHYME Adapted Books - Nursery rhyme activities - Special Education Books

Hey educators!

Adapted books are activities that are modified to fit a child's specific needs and is often found in special education or autism classrooms. They usually include visual supports and tactile objects that allow the student to actively participate in the book. There are many benefits to reading adaptive books for early readers or students with special needs. I, of course, LOVE to create individualized books that cater towards my kiddos' interests. A few of my students love nursery rhymes and music. One of my students often threw or ripped books, but once we used laminated custom books that catered towards her interests she was able to build not only tolerance but enjoyment! So I knew I HAD to make some for her favourite songs, and I hope your class loves songs too!
