Kitchen and Mealtime Extras Adapted Book

About this resource

EVERYTHING INSIDE — 19 pages, 113 fillable fields

• A What's in the Kitchen? Request Board: three request slots (I see, I want, Point to) and a six-picture match — with its own 6 cut-apart cards on the same sheet
• A Name That Kitchen Extra Board: three naming slots (That is a, Show me, Find the) asking for the same six words a different way, and the same six-picture match again — with its own 6 cut-apart cards on the same sheet
• Both boards twice: a full-color set for a laminated binder and a black-and-white ink-saver set for the photocopier
• 18 cut-apart picture cards across the two classroom boards and the home page
• A weekly tracker: 8 board jobs down, Monday to Friday across, one letter per cell (no help / pointed once / said the words / not run), a "no help" count per row and a week total
• A binder organizer: a front cover, a spine strip and nine divider tabs (three of them blank)
• A home version: a smaller set of the same six cards for the kitchen table, with a seven-day "we did it" row
• A family update with a team hand-off block for the next adult who runs the binder
• A phrase bank: 24 lines in 6 groups (spoken lines for running the boards, written starters for the note afterward)
• A filled example — an invented student, one week, every count re-counted from its own row
• An answer key listing every board, the cards it takes and what correct looks like, plus the full word list
• Start Here, a contents page with page thumbnails, and a "what's next" back page

A kitchen and mealtime extras vocabulary binder built on one six-word bank run through two different board types: a What's in the Kitchen? request board where the child asks for or points to any of six kitchen and mealtime items, and a Name That Kitchen Extra board where the same six cards are named a second way. This is a companion to the Kitchen Tools Matching Binder, not a repeat of it — the two binders cover six entirely different words between them, so a classroom can run both without a single repeated picture or card.

The Boards

• What's in the Kitchen? Request Board (page 6 in color, page 7 in ink-saver) — the board stays whole above a cut line; the card band below cuts apart. Three slots for a request (I see, I want, Point to), and a six-picture match (chopsticks, cup with straw, cooking, salt shaker, beverage box, rice): the child matches the identical card onto its picture.
• Name That Kitchen Extra Board (page 9 in color, page 10 in ink-saver) — three naming slots (That is a, Show me, Find the), and the same six-picture match printed and cut apart a second time, with its own full set of cards.

The Words

• What's in the Kitchen? cards (6): chopsticks, cup with straw, cooking, salt shaker, beverage box, rice
• Name That Kitchen Extra cards (6): the same six words, printed and cut apart on their own sheet
• Home page — the same six cards, sized for the kitchen table

Every picture was chosen to be named in one word by a young child, in color AND in the black-and-white set, and checked against every other live binder's own word list so no word repeats across the collection — including the Kitchen Tools Matching Binder, which uses six different kitchen words. Six words is this collection's picture-per-board floor exactly, so instead of a thin two-way topic split this binder runs the same six-word bank through a second, differently-framed board (see the module docstring for the full word-by-word check).

What This Is, And What It Is Not

It is a fillable PDF: type into the tracker, the organizer, the home page and the family update, or print and use a pen. The board pages print on cardstock or plain paper; the card band cuts off the bottom and the board stays whole. It works offline with no account or subscription. It is NOT an editable online slideshow or word-processor document, and it is not a test of anything.

It carries no prompt hierarchy, fading schedule or physical-guidance procedure, and it does not decide what a count means for a student or when a board is done with. It makes no claim about a student's readiness to use any real kitchen tool or appliance; every card is a picture-naming and picture-matching activity. The tracker counts which boards were done and what help was given, and nothing else.

Who This Is For

Special education teachers and paraprofessionals running functional-vocabulary or naming practice with early, pre-reading or low-verbal students, case managers who need that practice to show up as data, and the families who get the home page.
