It's that time already.
Well, not quite. But between my Canadian stubbornness to deal with the fact that Thanksgiving wasn't a month and a half ago, and my procrastinative skills, I just haven't wrapped my head around Thanksgiving yet, and it's a week away already. So I figured I'd get a jumpstart on Christmas.
I have spent a lot of time googling Christmas 3 Part Cards, and I'm just not finding what I'd like to find.
But this is what I did find.
A great set of Christmas/Winter Matching Cards at Montessori For Everyone, in their Free Downloads Section (even better!). They are not 3 Part in that they don't have words labelling the cards, but that's ok for now. I like the fact that they are photographs, multi-cultural, and nice, large, clear images. They are meant to be used as cards as well as a matching game, so once he's set with what they are, we'll start matching.
I also found a set of Christmas flash cards over at Free ESL Flash Cards. I think that once Dew1 masters the Montessori set, we'll move on to these ones. The images are iconographic, and when it comes to the ABLLS that he is doing, I know they prefer photographs to images. But that doesn't mean that I don't want him to be exposed to both.
I know that some people don't love cards, but Dew1 really responds well to them and enjoys them, and I figure that it can't hurt to expand his vocabulary any way we can :-)
So, I guess ... It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas over here...
Update:
Well, Dew1's Verbal Behaviour Consultant looked through them and we decided that there were several cards missing (and 1 missing in Thanksgiving) so I did some quick Google Images searching and came up with the following file.
