I see … animal habitats activity Forming sentences is very important for SEN learners. This activity uses real-life pictures for easy recognition of animal habitats and sight words as sentence starters. This is also an activity to practice identifying the attributes of what, the number, and the color of a group of animals . There are 10 groups of animals. The student will match the corresponding picture to answer the questions - What? How Many? What Color? There are 2 ways to use this file: Print the pages and use the pages as a “cut and paste” activity. The students will use glue to paste the correct answers where necessary. Print all the pages on photo paper and laminate them. Cut out the pages containing the colors, numbers, and pictures. There are 3 pages that serve as boards for the types of answers (“what?”, “how many?”, “what color?”). Use hook and loop dots on the backside of each card and in the middle of each blank square on the boards as well as on each square containing the questions. Thus the activity can be reused as many times as needed.
