Directions for use:

Presentation 1 – Matching

• Ask the child to match the unlabelled set of pictures to the corresponding labelled set.
• Then match the first label to the corresponding picture.
• Show the child how to move along from left to right until you find the corresponding card.
• Invite the child to match the remaining labels to their corresponding cards.

Presentation 2 – The 3-Period Lesson

• Use 3 unlabelled pictures, 1 known and 2 unknown (the known picture will always be the natural colour picture)
• This is presented in a 3 period lesson
• Briefly discuss and name in the first period - remembering to isolate. Ask the child to repeat each word.
• In the second period ask the child to, “Show me…”. After the child has identified them correctly, shuffle the cards around and repeat the process as many times as necessary. Spend a great deal of time in this period.
• In the third period isolate each card before the child each time asking the child, “What is this?”
• Consolidate by reminding the child of the lesson learned.
