Parts of a Plant Adapted Book "I See" Plant Parts | Real Photos for Inferencing, Identifying by Attribute & Function

Build essential inferencing skills, attribute recognition, and language reasoning with this engaging plant-themed adapted book featuring REAL PHOTOS throughout! "I See Plant Parts" uses a fun riddle format to teach students to identify the parts of a plant by their attributes and function — building critical language reasoning and science vocabulary through engaging predictable text.

Perfect for speech therapy (inferencing, attributes, and function IEP goals!), special education, autism classrooms, AAC users, and emerging communicators, this adapted book uses real photo visual supports — ideal for students who benefit from authentic imagery rather than cartoons.


Perfect For: Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), Special Education Teachers, Autism Classrooms, Self-Contained Classrooms, Resource Rooms, Life Skills Classes, Paraprofessionals, ABA Therapists, Early Childhood, PreK, Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st Grade, 2nd Grade, and 3rd Grade

📚 How to Use This Adapted Book:

A teacher, SLP, or paraprofessional reads each riddle aloud while students listen for clues about a part of a plant. Students then identify the plant part based on its attributes and function, choosing the matching piece that best fits the description. Turn the page to reveal the answer!

After working through the book, students extend the activity by creating their own plant-themed riddles — a powerful expressive language opportunity! Students working independently can read and complete the book at a literacy center or independent work station once the format is familiar.
