This Landscapes and Animals Pop-up Book is an easy and fun craft to do with your young learners when you’re working on the topics of nature, animals or landscapes. It also complements the Walking Through the Jungle song/story by Barefoot books too. This activity works well to teach description language and helps develop the children’s understanding of the world around them.
Choose from a range of different templates to vary the level of challenge and develop the language and skills you want to work on. Include literacy work or focus on listening and speaking skills. It’s up to you!
There are 8 different landscapes and 3 animals per landscape for the kids to choose from.
Detailed Activity Suggestions are included with practical ideas on games and activities to do at all stages of the craft, including before you get started and after you finish.
