About this resource

EVERYTHING INSIDE — 19 pages, 113 type-in fields

• A What Do You See? Request Board: three request/identify 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 Ride Board: the same six words asked for a different way (That is a, Show me, Find the) and the same six-picture match, printed and cut apart on its own sheet — with its own 6 cut-apart cards
• 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 in all, counting the color set and the home page once
• 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 9 divider tabs (3 of them blank)
• A home version: the same six-word bank at full size (6 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 (classroom set and home set)
• Start Here, a contents page with page thumbnails, and a "what's next" back page

A transportation vocabulary binder built on one six-word bank (sailboat, helicopter, motorcycle, tractor, metro, kick scooter) run through two different boards — requesting any of the six at the first board, then naming the same six a different way at the second, each with its own tracker row. Most matching binders stop at the board; this one adds the tracker, the family update and the phrase bank behind it, so a week of matching practice turns into a week of counts a case manager can bring to a meeting.

The Boards

• What Do You See? (page 6 in color, page 7 in ink-saver) — the board stays whole above a cut line; the card band below cuts apart. Three request/identify slots (I see, I want, Point to), and a six-picture match (sailboat, helicopter, motorcycle, tractor, metro, kick scooter): the child matches the identical card onto its picture.
• Name That Ride (page 9 in color, page 10 in ink-saver) — 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 on its own printed sheet and its own cut-apart cards. Neither board sorts the six words into a category; each board gets its own full set of cards.

The Words

• Request board cards (6): sailboat, helicopter, motorcycle, tractor, metro, kick scooter
• Naming board cards (6): sailboat, helicopter, motorcycle, tractor, metro, kick scooter
• Home page — the same six cards at full size

Every picture was chosen to be named in one word by a young child, in color AND in the black-and-white set. "Kick scooter" is labeled that way, not "scooter," so it reads clearly as a push scooter rather than a motor scooter or moped; "metro" depicts a subway/metro train car. The same six-word bank is printed as cut-apart cards twice — once for the request board, once for the naming board — for 12 classroom cards plus 6 home-page cards, 18 in all; this is an honest six-word bank run through two board types, not a padded board. This file makes no claim about real vehicles, traffic rules or vehicle safety; every card is a picture-naming and picture-matching activity, the same as any other picture on a matching board.

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 mastery rule, and it makes no claim about real vehicles, traffic rules or vehicle safety — every card is a picture-naming and picture-matching activity, not a safety claim. The tracker counts which boards were done and what help was given, and nothing else; what a count means for a student is your team's call.

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.

More In The Collection

This binder is part of the Morning Work & Adapted Books Collection; more matching binders are being added to the collection regularly, all on the same boards-plus-tracker shape. It is a companion to the Vehicles and Transportation Adapted Book (zero word-bank overlap: that one covers car, truck, bus, train, bicycle, airplane and taxi; this one covers sailboat, helicopter, motorcycle, tractor, metro and kick scooter), so the two can be run side by side without repeating a single word.
