THE ANIMAL KINGDOM: UNIT 2 : LESSON 1
GRADE 1
COMMON ANIMALS IN THE ENVIRONMENT
Hello students!! In our lesson today we will be learning something new and exciting. Every animal we can think of is apart of the animal kingdom. We will be learning how to identify these animals. Some of these are man, dogs, cats and even horses. Let’s begin.
Story telling :
The teacher to read the story below:
THE LION AND THE BOAR
It was a hot summer day. A lion and a boar reached a small water body for a drink. They began arguing and fighting about 
who should drink first. After a while, they became tired and stopped for a breath, when they noticed vultures above. Soon they realized that the vultures are waiting for one or both of them to fall, to feast on them. The lion and the boar then decided that it was best to make up and be friends than fight and become food for vultures. They drank the water together and went their ways after.
Identify the three animals mentioned in the story and write it in your note books.
