Build inferencing, core word vocabulary, and beach vocabulary with this interactive, adapted Peek and Seek Book featuring real photos! Students listen to a clue, peek through the hole to see just a small part of a hidden beach photo, make their best guess — then turn the page for the big reveal. A fun, hands-on way to target important speech and language IEP goals.

Students get lots of repetition with the core words "what," "you," "I," and "see," and the real photos support students who benefit from realistic images.


📖 Sample Pages

Look! Seek! Take a peek! What do you see at the beach?

👉 (Students peek through the peep hole and make an inference from the part of the photo they can see.)

(Turn the page for the reveal:)

Waves! They crash and splash along the shore. Yes it's true! I see waves. Yes I do!


Look! Seek! Take a peek! What do you see at the beach?
