Colors and Shapes of Language 1: A Star for Keisha Retelling Pictures

Designed for Neuhaus's Colors and Shapes of Language level 1, this set supports the oral language and comprehension skills that underpin reading. Each picture pairs clear, recognizable shapes and saturated, easy-to-name colors with enough narrative spark to invite description, sequencing, and retelling.

Educators can use the set to:

• Build descriptive vocabulary (color words, shape names, position and size)
• Model and practice retelling a simple sequence of events
• Prompt full-sentence responses and back-and-forth conversation

• Support multisensory, accessible instruction for diverse learners

Whether used whole-group, in small groups, or one-on-one, the pictures meet students where they are and give every child an entry point to talk.

Includes: a PowerPoint presentation, plus 3x5 and 4x6 retelling picture cards.
