Why use this resource?
This is a great game to get children learning about animals and their behavior or beginning to learn how to track animals in the wilderness. It's also a great way to teach animal adaptations and how animals survive in their environment. This resource is great to get your class outside in any weather, but especially on snowy or muddy days.
How to use:
Animal Tracks Poster
The poster will be great as classroom decor or as a notebook guide for students. If you plan on bringing it outdoors, I'd recommend laminating a classroom copy.
Animal Tracks Three-Part Flashcards:
After downloading the resource you will need to cut out the flashcards and matching game. Print an extra copy of the matching game to keep for yourself as an answer key. The animals and their tracks directly follow one another.
Animal Tracks Memory Matching Game
The matching game can be played in many different ways. Here are two examples I like using with my students.
- Testing your knowledge, which animal track goes with which animal?
- Memory game: Place all cards face down on a hard surface. Then, select two cards at a time. If they match, set them aside. If they do not match, flip them face down again. Continue until all matches are found.
Animal Tracks Visual Counting Worksheets:
After working with all of the resources above, test your students' knowledge with the Animal Tracks Visual Counting Worksheets. They will need 4 colored writing utensils (red, blue, green, and pink) to complete the worksheet. Students, first, must circle the corresponding animal track with the color instructed on the worksheet. After, they will count how many tracks they found for each animal.
Track Around the Classroom:
After downloading the resource you will need to cut out the animal cards and hide them around your classroom.
If your students are working in groups, print one animal track packet per group. If your students are working individually, print an animal track packet per student. Each student will also need their own copy of the Track Around the Room Worksheets.
Once everything is set up instruct your class that there are animals around the classroom and they will need to use the tracks in their packets to find them. Once they find an animal, they will need to record the animal's name and some information about the animal on their worksheets.
Once all of the students have found all of the animals there is an animal research flipbook template. Students can choose one animal to research further and create a flipbook.
