After reading informational books about each zoo animal, students can write to tell what they have learned about each animal in the Zoo Animal words book or on the sentence starter page. Other writing pages are also included
Phonics activities are also included allowing students to cut and glue animal pictures to the correct beginning sound and to match the animal picture to the animal name. Students can also write the name for each animal they have learned about. This allows the students to stretch each animal name and write what they hear. My students loved these activities.
