Hybrid Animals

Use simple writing prompts and questions to write about a hybrid animal. For example, a hambit= A hamster + rabbit

There is an activity at the end of the task.
Give the child the sheet of images and the sheet containing a table with two columns.
Say the names of the hybrid animals from the main task.
Can the child identify the two animals that combine to create the hybrid animal?
They can select them from the images of the animals from the options included or write the names into the table.
This element of the activity lends itself quite well to a discussion on syllable division and clapping out the syllables of words.
