Zoo Animals / Zoo Animals: Clip Cards for English Lessons

With these clip cards, learners find the correct English word for each animal picture and mark it with a clip. This allows them to practice vocabulary related to zoo animals in primary school English lessons in a fun and independent way. The animals range from elephants and penguins to meerkats, toucans, and sloths. The children can check the back of the card themselves to see whether their answer is correct.

What is included

• Clip cards featuring zoo animals: Each card shows an animal picture and several English words to choose from; the correct answer is marked on the back.
• Instructions for preparing and conducting the activity

Tips for using the material

• It is recommended to place the cards at learning stations, where learners can complete them independently.
