Product description

From the author

Community Helpers - Jobs Interactive Lapbook supports community-job vocabulary and introductory English speaking practice.

The 19-page PDF includes two cover options, an eight-job wheel, two paper dolls with ten outfits, storage pockets, tracing pieces and workplace foldables. Who-and-where question cards support oral practice.

Follow the cardstock and assembly directions before cutting, folding and fastening the pieces. Learners can use their completed lapbook for partner questions or presentations.

Use it with early learners or older ESL learners who are working on this vocabulary and these question patterns.
