This is a read-aloud of Rocks by Natalie M. Rosinsky and illustrated by Matthew John is highlighted in the August 2022 Saltillo Calendar.
Rocks introduces you to geology, a part of the Earth science branch.
This branch of Earth science includes all parts of Earth and its beauty.
Throughout the story, you’re encouraged to inspire interaction and conversation using the TAAP strategy. This month we suggest TAAPing your way through the story and model the following messages: I, didn’t, know, did, you, really, and see. Additional words for modeling are also included in this read-aloud: read, read more, turn the page, and the end. Model words to match the interest and needs of the person using the communication system as you explore different word combinations!
