These are series of animal games for kids that can improve students' reading and writing skills and general knowledge about animals. They are required for high beginner and elementary level students.

Neat activity. I'd pitch the level higher than beginning though, at least lower intermediate. Some of the vocab is pretty dense for beginning EFL/ESL learners.

Great activity for content based classes. Sevan and Nelli

These flashcards can be used for teaching children animals

These are flashcards of animals. They are colorful and funny. I'm completely sure kids will like them

When I was doing my practicum in EEC I really had problems in finding good flashcards. The problems was that in order to find a picture of a particular animal, I had to type the animal's name (eg.lion, cat) and then choose on of them, then change the size (make it bigger or smaller) and this process took me a long time. When I found this site I was very happy because they are very funny and colorful and there are approximately 10-15 animal picture that I can print immediately without searching them long or changing the size.

This handout contains the right names of the animals in flashcards presented in the following bookmark.

I found this handout useful because the flashcards that I have posted right below this handout will be helpful for identifying the animals' names. Moreover, kids can not only look at the flashcards but also read the spelling of each word. Besides, there will also be some animals that will be unknown even for the teacher (it happened to me very often) and for not wasting the time to look up in the dictionary, teachers can use this handout in case of necessity.

This activity will help the beginner students to learn the names of the animals. The power point will help them to remember the names easily as it is with pictures of animals. At the sasme time the students can learn the indefinite article "a". After looking at the power point the students can listen to the recorder and thus pronounce the names of the animals in a correct way.

These fleshcards can help an ESL/EFL teachers to teach the name of animals with the help of interesting fleshcards. I am going to use them during my today's class with Prep 2A children at the ages of 5-7.

These are pretty well flashcards in terms of teaching the names of animals. While using these flashcards, I reached my goal, i.e. I was able to teach my kids the names of animals and they were very interested.

This game is designed for low intermediate EFL learners. The game is very interesting one, becuase the player is motivated to guess the hidden animal until it appears in full picture (there are three choices for each hidden animal and when the player chooses one of them, the computer either makes green or red line in the word and also pronounces that word). So, this game can also help learners gain right pronunciation skills. I used this game with my neighbour (11-year-old boy) and he was interested in guessing the pictures and tried to pronounce the word after the computer prounced them. I would suggest ESL teachers to use it because it enhanced my neighbour's vocabulary and improves his pronunciation. skills.

This is a nice game for elementary level students through which they can learn the names of animals! The best thing about this game is that it has four sections: 1-shows the animal and pronounces the name along wit providing the written variant 2- it checks spelling VS. pronunciation 3-it checks pronunciation VS. picture 4- it checks spelling VS. picture. I tried it with elementary level students (two) and it was quite effective!!!!

Thanks Gayane for this game. I tried this game with my cousin who is 5 years old and only knows 10 letters of the English alphabet. We played this game together and he pretty liked it. He only knew the name of some of the animals but he doesnt recognise the written form of letters. therfore, I skipped the writing parts. I perticularly liked the part which he should listen to the names and then point me the animal to put the name under it. By the way, I used this game just to entertain him not to teach him. It think this approach helped him to just enjoy it as a game not a lesson. Thanks again.

this is a fun activity for beginners to practice body parts and animals. I'm thinking of trying it with my students since we are now learning body parts and animals. 

I used this during my EEC classes as a homework assignment and it worked pretty well because the students were very motivated to find the word that they had already learned. Besides, 'Animal Word Search' contains pictures of some animals, which makes them to do their homework with curiosity.

This game will help English learners to learn the names of animals, food,vegetables, musical instruments, clothes and so on by matching the same things together and pronouncing it correctly.

This is a very good game for developing kids' spelling. It helps them write the name of the animal guessed, The game also gives a chace to have reading as they have to read the hints in order to be able to write the answers.

I tried this activity with my C4A group. The topic was wild animals and this activity was excellent in terms of improving spelling and reinforcing the vocabulary on animals, You can also try this out!

Another listening activity is TO FIND THE PET THAT FITS. Thus, the pupil is supposed to listen to the activity carefully and then click on the right animal. I tried again on my little sister but she got a bit disappointed because there were words not familar to here and she lost scors because of that. But I am sure this was a nice chance to learn new words about animals. When she finished she said: " I had never seen such a fat dog in my life". But in this case she did not say DOG in Armenian but in English.
