- Pixon Teaching Tip: Pixons can be used as teaching materials
for picturing the metaphors behind Unity® icon sequences. The word for
this week is “put”. Compare the Pixon
 to the icon sequence   .
Teach the meaning of the word “put” starting in the context of putting
things into a chest or box. Then extend the meaning of “put” by putting
things in other containers, putting on clothes, putting dishes on the
table, etc.
- Intervention Planning: Thank you to Christina Dal Santo,
Annette O’Connor, and Malia Vigil for the Intervention Plan for teaching
the core verb “put”. Use it with an animated PowerPoint show they developed called Put: Containers Show or a PDF book called Put: Containers Book..
- Teaching Materials Exchange: The Veterans Day
book quizzes your knowledge of this national holiday. The book is
