Animals

Olandsskolan, Östhammar · Senast uppdaterad: 1 januari 2024

Animals are all around us and they are a big part of our lives. Let´s work a bit about animals.

We are going to start off this semester by working and learning more about animals. We are going to read, look at videos and have discussions about animals. 

 

What and how are we going to work: 

Firstly, we are going to do a warm-up exercise where you are going to try to guess the animal that is being described.

Secondly, we are going to read different texts and watch videos and in class discuss different questions about animals. 

Thirdly, you will write a short text about your thoughts about animals.

Fourtly, you will do a reading comprehension. 

Lastly, you will do an individual oral presentation of an animal of your choice to the class. You will have 3 lessons to prepare and practise on the presentation. I want you to use Power Point when you present. Deadline to be done and when you start your presentation is Wednesday the 7th of February week 6.

 

What to include and think about when preparing the presentation:

You all have a favourite animal or an animal you like. Now you are going to do a presentation about an animal by using Powerpoint. 

You will work alone on the assignment and you will have 3 lessons to prepare and practise on the presentation. 

 

Include the following in your presentation: 

  • Family/relatives
  • Description of the animail/ describe it
  • Where does the animal live/ the habitat
  • Food
  • Famous/know for something special?

 

Think about the following things when you prepare: 

  • It is not allowed to copy and paste English text, you have to use your own words!  
  • Only use words you and your classmates understand and if you are going to use any expressions - explain them in your presentation. 
  • If you are going to present a cat or dog, I want you to present a speficic breed (ras), for example Labrador and Siamese cat.
  • Remember to only use bullet points and not too much text.
  • Include pictures, videos etc. 
  • Try to speak more freely and do not only present by reading from the power point. 

 

  • Remember: practise on the presentation!

 

What I will focus on during this project when grading you:

  • Written reflection
  • Reading comprehension
  • Oral presentation

 

We will end this "Animals" project by Friday the 9th of February week 6 

 

Good luck!
