I am passionate about learning that is tailored to children's interests and gives lots of opportunity for children to be creative and critical thinkers. I think it's important that learning materials cater to a variety of learning styles and I try to make my resources have real-world applications whenever possible. These resources will not only engage your learners, but they'll save you time, so that you can focus on doing what you do best.

If you’re after fun games and activities to help your learners understand the concept of carnivores, omnivores and herbivores and to be able to confidently identify and name animals for each type, then you’ll love this pack of printable and digital games.
Printable activities:
Card sort – children match the pictures to the animal types.
Board game – children answer a variety of questions as they make their way around the board.
Scavenger hunt/write the room – a great way to get children moving around the classroom to find and write animals in the matching column on their worksheet. This is a great introductory activity and comes with two levels of difficulty.
Spinner game – children race to cover the animals on their boards to match the animal type on the spinner. Two levels of difficulty are included.
Digital activities (PowerPoint games):
Guess the animal based on the picture and diet type. This is great for an introductory whole-class activity.
Guess the diet type (carnivore, omnivore or herbivore) of each animal. This is great for an end-of-topic whole-class activity and can be as competitive as you like.
You could upload these to Google classroom if you use Google classroom instead of PowerPoint.
