For today’s topic task I want you to become investigators and find out more about African animals! You are going to choose an African animal of your choice - could be an elephant, could be a giraffe or a zebra - and you’re going to do some research and find some facts about them. You can look in books at home for these facts or look on google. Below are some child friendly links that have African animal facts…

Challenge: Draw or print out a picture of your chosen African animal and then write some simple facts below. You could take it in turns so that a Robin writes the fact then an adult writes a longer fact. A simple sentence example might be - It has 4 legs. Encourage your Robin to use their phonic knowledge to write these and don’t worry if the sentence or words doesn’t come out as you expect!
