Target receptive and expressive language skills with engaging Matt and Molly stories, motivating hands-on activities, and predictable lesson routines.

Eight theme-based animal stories and activities target skills in:

  • narrative language
  • vocabulary and concepts
  • answering questions
  • sequencing and predicting
  • determining what's missing
  • reading comprehension

The program includes eight stories with:

  • four full-color, 8½" x 11" sequence pictures for each story (32 total pictures)
  • four large-print sentence strips per story that students match to the correct illustrations (32 sentence strips for each program)
  • six wh- and how word cards, a Yes card, and a No card for the question-asking activities
  • a teacher manual with complete lesson plans and teaching techniques designed to engage students in learning. The manual includes:
    • ready-to-use lists of yes/no, wh-, and how questions for each story
    • target vocabulary/concept words
    • teaching suggestions
    • a list of easy-to-find props for role-playing each story sequence
