Free Download: Who is Here Today?

We use this during our morning circle time. Each child has a picture card with Velcro on the back. We put all the pictures in a basket and each child has a turn pulling out a card. They then identify the person on the picture (either by verbally naming, looking at, pointing to, or walking to the child, depending on their individual ability). The class then decides if the child pictured on the card is present in the classroom that day. If the child is there, the pictured child takes the card and places it on the school house. If they child is absent, the class helps to figure out where the student is. Possible guesses might be at home, at general education, or in speech therapy. The title is available for download.
