Materials required: Is Your Mama A Llama? written by Deborah Guarino
Prepared Posterboard for a sort
Animal Magnets
Animal Puppets
Baggies containing animal cutouts and clothespins
Time required: 30 minutes
Objectives: As a result of instruction, the students will be able to:
Identify different farm animals
Sort and match farm animal babies with their mothers
Notice similarities and differences between the babies and mothers
Understand that animals can be called different names according to gender or age
Activating Prior Knowledge:
The teacher will elicit knowledge of baby animals after talking about the baby animal on the cover of the book.
While the teacher reads, the students will draw conclusions as to what animals the clues in the book describe.
Procedure:
The teacher will model sorting animal magnets. All of the mother animals will go on one side of a poster board and the babies will go on the other side. The magnets are made from pictures of animals with magnets on the back.
After the teacher models, the students will continue the sort.
The students will learn the names of baby and mother animals while sorting pictures.
The students will each get an animal puppet. This is a picture of an animal on a Popsicle stick.
The teacher will elicit animal names while the students match mother and baby animal puppets.
Follow-up:
The students will independently match mother and baby animals. Each student will get a baggie of animals. If it is a picture of a mother animal, the students will attach two large clothespins for legs on the picture. If it is a picture of a baby animal, the students will attach small clothespins for legs.
