Podcast Script
“Hi! And Welcome to our Pod cast”
Today we will be talking about forest animals and how they are different from each other. We will focus on 7 forest animals who are all unique in their own way.
Let’s begin…Look at the outline and find the animal that only eats plants or berries, these animals are called herbivores – that means they only eat plants – if you named a rabbit, mouse, squirrel or deer you are correct.
Now, let’s look at carnivores – these are meat eaters. Can you name at least carnivores?
If you named a bear, fox or owl you are correct! These animals are carnivores because they only eat meat.
Now, let’s talk about what animals eat in order to survive. Which animal do you think would eat a rabbit or a mouse? If you named a fox or an owl you are correct. Remember, a fox and an owl are carnivores – they eat meat.
Now, let’s talk about hibernation. Do you know what that means? It is what some animals do during cold months.
Which animals do you think hibernate? Look at the picture carefully. If you named a bear or a squirrel, you are correct!
Finally, we are going to see how each animal is different from each other. Can you name the animal that can fly? What about the animal that hunts for fish? You are doing great! Now tell me which animals have 4 legs? What about the animals that have a tail? Which animal runs the fastest? Which animal runs the slowest?
Well, I hope this has helped you better understand how animals can be the same and especially how they are different. I hope you enjoyed this activity. Goodbye!
