GRAMMAR, BASIC CONCEPTS & VOCABULARY
Touch & Talk
"The kits have been such a well-received resource for our teachers and our students. Having something that doesn't require any preparation, and that is so flexible to meet the needs of a variety of students has been so beneficial." - Brooklyn Ryan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Expand Basic Concept Vocabulary in Descriptive Sentences:
Teach over 100 basic concept words through hands-on sensory rich learning to help children connect words with ideas. Every sentence includes a preposition, so children master these key concept words. These concept words are then used in sentences to help children understand and create rich, descriptive language.
Fully Guided yet Completely Flexible:
100 picture cards are organized into 3 levels of difficulty and a categorization extension activity. It is the cards that will guide your practice and scaffold the language so that you can meet children where they’re at and grow from there!
Categorization Extension Activity:
Practice grouping items in 10 different ways to help children understand how objects are related - an essential step in vocabulary development!
How to use receptively (listening)
How to use receptively (listening)
First you're the speaker. Pick up a card and read the sentence at the top. Then the child will arrange the objects to show their understanding. Reveal the card and together compare the image to the arrangement. If it matches, yay! if not, this is your teaching moment.
How to use expressively (speaking)
How to use expressively (speaking)
The child picks up a card and describes the image. The listener arranges the objects as they described. The picture card is revealed and compared to the arrangement. If it matches, yay! If not, help them say it better.

Perfect as a tabletop activity for 4–5 students. Place the objects on a tray so they can be easily passed to the “listener.” Read a card aloud and have the listener take the required items off the tray to make the arrangement. Provide any supports the child may need, and let them keep the picture card as a point. The items are then returned to the tray, and the process is repeated with the next child. This also makes a wonderful “buddy class” activity, where older students can take on the role of the “teacher.”
Give children the communication skills they need to succeed
Language is the foundation that literacy sits upon. Learning to read and write doesn’t start with text; it starts with language.
Vocabulary, listening, speaking, memory, and social interaction are the critical skills needed for the development of literacy and academic learning.
Our multi-sensory approach makes language learning meaningful and memorable.
