Types of Animals, their teeth and food habits- A creative, fun and art integrated science activity.

-
Here is a creative and fun activity for kids to teach about animals and their food habits. Animals have different food habits. Based on their food habits, we classify the animals into herbivorous, carnivorous, and omnivorous. Animals have different types of teeth based on their eating habit. 
The activity (Types of Animals, their teeth, and food habits) targets both concepts of food habits and their teeth. The creative art integrated activity gives immense pleasure to the students and makes them involved in the process. Animals have been part of our lives. Students see different animals daily, but they may not know which animal is Herbivorous, Carnivorous, or Omnivorous. They usually see cows, dogs, and lions,  but they don't know why their teeth are formed differently from each other, and their relationship with their food habits. 
The activity blends both ideas and gives the overall concept of their food habits and teeth arrangement. The relation between the food habits and teeth is clearly understood by this activity. Moreover, students engaged actively, as it is an art-integrated interactive activity. 
Here I am sharing my classroom activity. It is a simple, fun, engaging activity where children enjoy and understandably learn the concept.

Topic: Talk about your house Lesson: My house and my family Grade: Primary Skills: Speaking and vocabulary                      When teachers use activities that make learning engaging and fun, students are more willing to participate and take risks.

And also a very effective model to teach and learn the vocabulary related to a house. I have seen this in the PINTEREST and made this for my class.

Topic: Techniques for writing tasks, Skill Focused: Writing, Grade: Primary and Lower Secondary.                          Supporting students to tune into the creativity needed for writing through a range of experiences is key to developing imagination and ideas for writing in all forms. Actually, writing is intricately linked to critical thinking. It also has implications for performance across all areas of the language. Writing is how a child shows what he or she knows and what has been learned. When we ask students to write, often we are just testing their skills rather than teaching them how to write or how to improve their writing.                     Sometimes, stating clear rules and expectations is just not enough. It may not work for all your students. That’s why you should also take a “lighter” path. What does that mean? It means that you can use non-intrusive mot...
