What's Missing Adapted Book | Problem Solving WH Questions | SLP SPED Autism

Turn everyday routines into engaging language practice! In this "What's Missing? Recreation Routines Edition" adapted book, students look at a group of objects, figure out what's missing to complete a task, and answer the WH-question "What?" — building problem-solving, reasoning, and critical-thinking skills. (Heading out to surf? You've got waves, trunks, and sunscreen... but where's the surfboard?) Perfect for both inclusive and self-contained classrooms.
