Instructional Ideas

  • Include in a language arts packet for independent practice at home
  • Have kids turn their sentences into expressive poems, possibly with illustration of the animal or animals they choose to write about

Classroom Considerations

  • Consider loosening the sentence structure for kids who may have a hard time writing short, alliterative sentences
  • Some animals may be unfamiliar to learners; consider bringing in pictures of wombats, falcons, or cobras
  • Parts of the worksheet are in color; printing in black and white may impede understanding

Pros

  • Answer key provides suggestions for answers, though the real answers are based on learners' contributions

Cons

  • None
