Description: This is part two of my best-selling Complex Sentence Comprehension TpT/Boom resource! It can be used to target comprehension of basic/opposite concepts on their own and also when embedded in complex sentences! In addition to receptive language skills, use this to work on higher-level expressive language skills including describing, comparing/contrasting, formulating sentences, using basic/opposite concepts expressively, building tier two vocabulary, and answering critical-thinking questions! For each of the 38 adjectives in this resource, the student can select the photo (from a field of three) that matches the concept. Next, they can read or listen to a complex sentence containing the same adjective and select the photo that best matches the sentence (from a field of four). This resource follows a similar layout to the sentence comprehension subtests of the CELF-P2 and CASL in that sentence-level comprehension pages have one sentence and four similar photos (one of which matches the spoken sentence). You can require the student to repeat each sentence aloud and/or to visualize in order to work on auditory memory skills. By requiring students to explain why they selected a particular photo to match a sentence, you can tease apart whether they truly understood the sentence or if they pointed based on one detail they heard. This is a great progress-monitoring tool too :)
