By linking the
family unit with zoo animals like giraffes, learners can apply that vocabulary in
a new context. This reinforces word meaning and helps them generalize language.
Using
the giraffe family flashcards offers a neutral, inclusive way to talk
about family structure, which may vary from student to student.
Plan
to use a grid with the flashcards or small cards to get an active response for
the family language in review. Students will grid the information read out by
you: This giraffe has a dress. It is red.
Students: C1!! It’s
the sister giraffe.
Written
work on their notebooks where they will write several sentences from the grid
on the board.
To
add a hands-on, tactile element to your giraffe family unit, I included an
engaging activity where students build family vocabulary words using fun foam
letters. The small giraffe family cards serve as visual prompts and
guides. Each student selects a card—mother, father, baby, sister,
or brother—and then uses fun foam letters to spell out the corresponding
word.
This activity reinforces letter recognition, word formation, and vocabulary recall in a playful, multi-sensory way.
Pocket
Chart Sentence Builder. Students use the blank
sentence templates and write like “This is brother giraffe.” to build simple
family sentences.
Create
pairs with the printable puzzle. Place
all the pieces face down and students flip cards to find matching pairs.
This
simple path board game featuring giraffe family members allows students
to practice vocabulary while having fun. Students roll a die, move their token,
and say the word on the space they land on (e.g., “This is the mother giraffe”).
In
the giraffe family unit, worksheets offer a calm and independent way for
students to review, practice spelling, match images to words, and even build
sentences using the target vocabulary.
