Zoo Animals Printable BOOKS

Plan enjoyable experiences to do in class.The books can be read more than once in class, at home or within a group until they become a reader. Students will go over listening comprehension. Ask them to listen for details as they identify and describe the vehicles.

I made two books this time, one is zoo animals in jeeps and another one is zoo animals in race cards.

This book has a worksheet to complete the activity and even more by turning each jeep into a puppet to read the book. Puppets are useful for speaking, students usually make an effort to say the sentences because they feel more confident using the puppet. Just cut and glue the zoo animal to a craft stick.

The other book is with race cars. It also has a worksheet to use along with the reading activity.

Take a look!

Another book featuring a giraffe that goes to school. There is a colored version that you can print and read in class or use it as a pdf that you can read on a tablet to your class.

I made a black and white version to make a class book in which each student will color a page of the book. They can also color the sight word such as giraffe, school, the. Send book home for the students to read with their parents.

A closer look on the giraffe book that your students can create.

Zoo Animals Craft. This is an enjoyable activity for your students. Crafts are tied to creativity. Make these cute Headbands. During the activity students can listen to commands for creating the headband, such as cut, color and more. The students have to use their imagination and creativity along with their fine motor skills to create their masterpiece.

Zoo Animals Unit Rewards help booster confidence in learning English. The motivation is important for keeping students on task. Start your reward system.Recognize your student's work on that day. It can be a recognition to the winners of any the games or the completion of the worksheet. Students that are shy in class and participated that day, give him/her a reward for their bag. It can also be a bag for the table. At the end of the unit count how many rewards each student or group got and plan what they will get, such as a longer recess, a candy, anything works.

Glue the zoo animals cutouts onto small plastic ziplock kind of bags. 

Take a look!

You can use anything to receive as a rewards, either bottle caps, zoo animal cutouts, peanuts for the elephant, whatever your imagination comes up with. And remember to say why they won a piece to the put in the reward bag and then count to the amount of pieces they won to a bigger prize that you have in mind.

Another way to do it is using lunch bags. All the templates have easy to cut dotted lines. You can either open the mouth or not. It depends on what is easy for you. Glue the templates onto the lunch bags and cut the excess from the top of the bag. I used fun foam stars that I had as rewards for the students.
