Rhyme: Cut out the cards (page 7) and match rhyming words from the story. Pictures make the cards partially self-checking.

Verb Tense: Cut out each verb card (pages 8-11). Name the verb from the story indicated on the left side of the card.. Then determine the verb form for past, present and future tense. Use a dry erase marker to fill in the blanks.

Story Sequencing: Print the story sequencing circles (pages 12-13) and add Velcro. Let students retell the story and add the story parts in order.

Ordinal Numbers: Print and cut the included cards. Have students find matches (ie: first/1st) and then put them in order.

Comprehension: Use the included 12 comprehension cards (pages 16-17) as a follow up to the book. Use the Yes/No questions (page 18) as another follow-up activity.

Articulation Reinforcers: Use the Spin and Cover and Granny Collector games as a general reinforcer for articulation students (or any speech/language target). During Spin & Cover (pages 19-20) the student uses an included spinner and sheet to be the first to cover each item (use bingo chips.) During the Granny Collector game (page 21-22) students use the included game die to collect as many grannies as they can. Be the first to cover each granny and win. Say your sound as many times as you cover grannies!

Granny Grammar: Help your students increase their sentence complexity. Give each student a grammar granny (page 33). Granny has different parts of speech written on different parts of her face. Students should develop a sentence. Then look to see which elements they have included. They should color in those parts on the granny in the sentence strip (page 34.) Encourage students to add complexity to their sentences.

Future Tense Writing: Have your student develop a sentence writing and drawing what he/she would eat if they were the granny.
