The Owl and the Pussy-Cat Poetry Pack

The Owl and the Pussy-Cat vocabulary cards and two presentations to support the teaching of all three verses of the poem The Owl and the Pussy-Cat by Edward Lear to EYFS or Key Stage 1 pupils. All selected 29 words/phrases from the poem contain matching images.

Vocabulary cards
The vocabulary cards can be used as a glossary, or cut out and used as a matching activity or as flashcards. These are particularly useful for pupils with English as an additional language (EAL) and pupils with Special Educational Needs (SEN) to pre-teach the vocabulary before reading the poem, and again mid-unit.

The cards can also be used as a glossary for all pupils to refer to while studying the poem to aid understanding.

The cards can be printed onto A3 and displayed in the classroom as a visual reminder.

Vocabulary Presentation
The 59 slide presentation can be used to pre-teach the vocabulary, to test pupils or to prompt the class as they recite the lines to help pupils to memorize the poem.

Poem Presentation

Each document is available as an editable Word/PowerPoint file and as a PDF file.
