This lesson is designed for children ages 5, kindergarten level. This activity is good for moving around and getting physically active. This activity also helps children learn the different ways animals move. Children will be mimicking animal motions.
Children are expected to learn life science. Students will gain an understanding of Life Science through the study of changes in organisms over time and the nature of living things. Children will have the chance to ask questions and will be given reasons to why some of these changes take place and why they are necessary. Children will learn how an animal is born, if it is by an egg or live birth and which stages the animal transforms to developmentally before being considered an adult animal. They will mimic the animal in each stage and compare the animal life stages to their own and other members of their family.
I would have the children pick an item from a box and tell me if the item was living or non living. Once they have told me if it is living or nonliving I will have them act out the item they picked. If it was a car they would move around like a car and make noises a car made, if it was an animal they would move like that animal and make movements that animal makes. The only problem I think I would have if making sure the children don't hurt themselves or one another when moving around. The most challenging part in an active lesson like this is keeping the kids focused.
