Description
I Have – Who Has? games are fun way to teach and review vocabulary and question structures in your preschool, kindergarten or ESL classroom! They are low-prep and also work great as time-filler activities.
This FARM ANIMALS AND THEIR BABIES pack includes 4 sets of cards in both colour and black line, with Basic and Extension sets so you can choose which best suits your class needs! You can adapt them to large or small groups, and choose which skills you want to focus on – use the sets with animal names if you want to help reinforce reading, or the sets without names if you want to focus on vocabulary recall.
The cards are large and bright, specially designed to appeal to little ones. They would make a great addition to Farm Animal units and centres or even as a cute Mother’s Day activity!
They are also FULLY EDITABLE, so you can easily change the text from U.S English to British English. For an explanation of how I use these cards with my kids in class, see below!

USING THE GAME IN CLASS
As I teach different age groups, I wanted a game that I could easily adapt for their different levels. With my 3-4 year olds, I use the Basic set of 12 cards – this set includes the 6 “common” farm animals, so they are not saturated with vocabulary. I also find it better to teach them “baby cow” instead of “calf” at this age – it’s easier for them to remember and gives them more practise with the basic farm animal vocabulary I want to teach. With my 5 year olds, I usually use the Basic Set, but teach them the actual names of the baby animals.
With my 6-7 year olds I add the Extension cards, so they are playing with 22 cards in total. With these ages I like to give them lots of opportunities for reading in English, so if they can’t remember all the animal names they can just read them from the cards!
With 5 year-olds, you can use the Basic Set but teach them the real words for the baby animals. Or, depending on the level of your group, you could try adding the Extension Set, but use the structure “Baby cow” to focus more on the words for the adult animals.
