In this Read-Along lesson, Amy notices that baby animals look a lot like the adults in their families—and then discovers that she does, too! The lesson includes a short exercise where students get moving by acting like farm animals. You can extend the lesson with the optional activity, Matchup Game, where students work together to match pictures of animals with their babies.
Student slideshow: English | Spanish
Teacher printout: English & Spanish
Baby Animal Matchup Game (variations)
For homeschool or small classes, print out one of copy of each page, cut out the cards, and have students match mothers and babies.
Have students try to find their match by acting out their animals. (No talking or showing others the picture of their animal.)
Have a discussion about the sounds that different animals make. Then have students try to find their match by making the animal's sound. (Don't forget — babies and parents may not make the same sound!) .
