Help your students learn everyday clothing vocabulary with this Clothing Mini-Book. This foldable ESL picture dictionary introduces and reviews essential clothes words such as shirt, pants, shoes, dress, and more. Designed for ELL, ESL, and EFL learners as well as early elementary students, this activity is a simple but effective way to build vocabulary, spelling, and word recognition.
The best part? This print-and-fold mini-book is no-prep and requires only one sheet of paper. With a single fold and one cut, students create their own 8-page mini-book they can keep in interactive notebooks or take home for extra practice. Available in both color and black-and-white versions, the B/W option can also be used for coloring and labeling activities. Two versions are included: one with words for reading and spelling practice, and one without words so students can write in the clothing vocabulary themselves.
