The pages can be a half or quarter sheet of paper with a construction paper cover. On each page write the name of one class of animal. Continue discussing each sound until the word is spelled out. Students then choose any animal in that category to illustrate. The animal classes we usually include in our booklet are crustaceans, spiders, insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals.
Children practice rhyming words that are related to animals.
Make silly rhymes with the above rhyming words. I wish I had a fish on a dish. Students use a drawing program such as Paint, or Kid Pix to draw any animal . Teacher use Kid Pix or Power Point to put the students' pictures into a slide show presentation. Each student tells a sentence about his picture as the slide is played.
