Taking a tour of London Zoo

This lesson is part of a wider cross-curricula unit called London Zoo which is designed for KS1 and lower KS2 students (Y2-4).

The colourful presentation introduces students to some of the animal groups children might see at London Zoo including mammals, fish, insects, birds, reptiles and amphibians.

The activity then takes students on a tour of the zoo and challenges them to record the animals they would see at different points in their journey. It is differentiated two ways:

Easier – Students identify 20 different animals (with first-letter clues).
Harder – Students identify 20 different animals (no clues).

N.B. The activity worksheet can be photocopied to A3 size to allow for children with larger handwriting.
