ImplementationTeachers are encouraged to have flash cards with visual aids on them as well as the English and Spanish translations. If these are used throughout the day with the schedule and when interacting with objects, students will learn their routine and objects quickly and become comfortable in their new environment.

The teacher will use review pages to remind students of the objects introduced throughout the story and to reinforce skills.
