  • 2 copiesasterisk of Doctor DeSoto (William Steig, 1982) for 4th - 6th grade

Why are there two copies of most of the books?

The first book, Frog, Where Are You?, is a wordless picture book used both for providing the model and prompting for the student's narrative retell.

asteriskThe other three books contain words. One copy is used to read the story to the student. The other copy, which comes with all the words neatly covered with blue tape, is used to prompt for the student's retell.
