Animal Families Vocabulary

It’s Mother’s Day on Sunday, May 14. Will your young learners be talking about families in class this week? Try our cute lesson on Animal Families!

This eight-page Word Bank lesson covers the names of mother, father, and baby animals of a few common animal families. They will practice this vocabulary through several fun, colorful activities, including a picture dictionary, matchup, word choice, word search, word scramble, and spelling bee. This lesson finishes up with discussion questions so that your students can practice using the vocab in context.

The animals are also available as flashcards at the end of the lesson. For ideas on how to use flashcards in class, check out 9 Ways to Use Cards & Flashcards in Class.
