Ask children: What do you see in this picture? (a family’s home). Ask children: Where do you and your family live? (answers may vary: ‘close to school’, ‘far away’, ‘in a neighborhood’, street name, ‘in a house’, etc.) Say: People live in houses, but many animals do not. Where do animals live? (in the forest, zoo, outside, etc.)
Apply
