APP-Y HOUR: Monster at the end of this book & Another monster at the end of this book

Monster at the End of this book $4.99
Another Monster at the End of this book $4.99

Bought the first "Monster at the End of the Book".  HAD TO HAVE the sequel.  My students love this interactive book.  Following Grover and watching him do silly things to stop you from turning pages makes everyone smile.

Help knock down walls. Take off paper clips, remove glue and untie knots to turn the page and forge ahead to the end of the book!

Another triple threat: articulation, language, pragmatics.

Articulation: Various opportunities to work on a variety of sounds.  Some that I target are: anterior linguals, labial-facial control, mandibular control. (knot, no, oh-no, AH!, mommy, go)

Language: WH?, following directions, sequencing

Pragmatics: Users are forced to wait to touch the screen and patience is required (some of the pages are slow to re-load, and slow according to impatient 3 & 4 year olds).  This is a great book to talk about feelings too! Grover is scared to go to the end, and other feelings are mentioned (happy, embarrassed).

So check under your bed, grab your favorite blanket and join Grover and Elmo for a fun adventure!
