DEVELOPMENT OF THE UUDD EVALUATION:
ANNEX. ACTIVITIES.
I. INITIATION ACTIVITIES
1. Complete the crossword
7
Yes Not Why? Observations.Have been achieved the proposed objectives?Are the contents well adapted to the criteria and standards?Are the activities developed in a remarkable way?Have assessment methods been appropriate?Have been achieved the transverse elements objectives?
This activity is to remember concepts of past years. It is a crossword puzzle with
words and definitions that have to do with animals. Thus, in addition to introduce
children to the subject, also remember the vocabulary of previous years.
For this activity will be required 15 minutes and it is done in pairs of two people.
It is an easy activity but so children will quickly make it and will remember their
previous knowledge. This activity was created with this webpage:
http://worksheets.theteacherscorner.net/make-your-own/crossword/crossword.php
2. Introduction to habitats
First of all we are going to ask the children little questions to discover their
previous knowledge about the topic.
8
Who knows what a habitat is?
Do you know what kinds of habitats exist in the Earth?
What type of animals live in each one? And why?
Then, we are going to explain little theory about habitats: a definition, the most
common habitats that exist, and which animals live in each one. We are going to use
photographs to have visual support, and making easier for them to understand.
1.Forest.
2.Desert.
3.Meadows.
9
4.Mountain.
5. Polar Region.
6.Ocean.
10
3. Getting familiar with habitats.
This activity is proposed to pupils to getting familiar with habitats. It consist in
complete puzzles with images of different habitats in order to create a clear image of
each one in their minds for the acquisition of each kind of habitat.

4. Ecosystem
http://www.studystack.com/crossword-2093297
The first one, is a Crossword about the ecosystem of the animals; and this is the
initial activity. You can work with the children in general form, individual, in groups of
four pupils or in pairs, and this case you have to teach the different ecosystem. The
activity has to last about 25 min, in general all the students have to finish on time, but if
you have any problem with other students you can change the time.
5. Wordsearch
This is an initiation activity in which they have to search the words that I provide
them (in the wordsearch). With this activity they get used to this words and then, when
they work in other activities they will know better this vocabulary.
The idea is to work by groups of three or even by pairs in other to do some effort
to search those words. The activity takes 15 minutes more or less, because it’s an easy
activity and so they could do some other activities proposed for that period of class.

II. DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
1. Complete the parts of the animal
This activity is made to help children learn new concepts on the agenda. In this
case refers to the interior of all animals of all types, and can thus see the differences
between them.
In this activity, children must indicate pointing arrows.
12
This is an individual activity that will be 20 minutes to complete and find
information about the activity.
In addition, this activity is very visual and encourages children to learn,
furthermore they learn the concepts faster through images.
13
2. Recreating a habitat
This is a group activity that consist in dividing the pupils into 6 different groups.
We provide each group a habitat, and they have to create a big image composed by the
characteristics of the habitat chosen.
Then, we put the six murals in the classroom walls. And we start playing a game.
14
The game is a competition by groups were we provide stickers of animals and
each group have to work together to put all the stickers in the habitat that correspond.
We the time is finished the time that put more stickers win.
3. Relating animals with habitats.
This activity is for making sure that the pupils are able to relate each animal with
its habitat.

4. Environments
http://www.studystack.com/fillin-2093300
This kind of activity is development of the different kind of animals depending on
their type of feeding. In this link you find an activity in which the children can learn the
different kind of animals' food chain.
The game can be worked individual, in groups of three pupils or in pairs; and the
time has to be 15 min, because this type of activities have to be motivate and the
children don't realize that they learn but for them all of this is a game.
5. Food chain
This is a development activity in which they learn the definitions and examples of
the food chain. This page offers multiple things, the first one is the definition and the
corresponding image (as example) and then, children can play some games or they can
spell what they listen (according to this vocabulary), also they can do some tests.
The idea is to work individually to learn in a relaxed way (without disturbing any
other partner that works with him/her). According to the time of the activity, they can
do it in 30 minutes, because they should have time to do the activities of spelling,
listening, flashcards, etc.

III. CONSOLIDATION ACTIVITIES
15
1. Fill the gaps
This activity is carried out for children review all the learning they have learned
during this topic.
This activity will take place on an individual basis and in 15 minutes. It is filling
the gaps with the classification of the families of animals, as well as add the different
characteristics of each group.
2. What have you learnt?
16
This activity consist on reviewing what the pupils have learnt about habitats with
a habitat hangman.

3. Different kingdoms
https://quizlet.com/112634522/the-animal-ecosystem-flash-cards/
This kind of activity is a consolidation form to teach the different animal
kingdoms. In this link you find a web where you can work all about the animal
ecosystem (their feeding, kingdoms...) and there are a variety of definitions related to
this topic.
The different definitions have to be worked individual, in groups of three pupils or
in pairs, in that form they can help his/her classmates or find help in others. The time is
optional, if you consider that it necessary to work more than 30 min, you can, but in a
normal situation all pupils get all the knowledges in this time.
http://www.studystack.com/test-2093308
This activity is a test to check the children's knowledge about the animal
ecosystem and their food chain. In this way the children can improve realize their real
situation about this knowledge.
The test should be work individual because is like exam and each student has to
work alone to improve the objectives. The time is about 30 min because is very short
and if you want to let more time, you can. With this kind of activity the teacher can
know the level of his/her class and he/she can work in a dynamic way.
4. How many things do you know about animals?
This activity is used to consolidate some knowledges about animals. For example
invertebrates, vertebrates and each types, characteristics that have in common, etc. It’s
an activity in which all pupils can be involved or do it by groups. Depending if they do
the flashcards or they play the hangman, quiz, etc., they can do it by groups.
The idea is to divide the class into groups of 2 children so, in that way, they can
answer the questions. We will go to the ALTHIA class so we will have enough space
for all students. According to the time, the activity takes 25 minutes more or less, so
17
they have some minutes for each question. If some pairs have free time they could play
other games of the same page and with the same content.

join the characteristics to the correct group of animal.
We will go to the ALTHIA class so we will have enough space for all students.
According to the time, the activity takes 10 minutes more or less, so they have some
minutes for each question.

IV. SUPPLEMENTARY ACTIVITY. Visit to Madrid’s Zoo.
We are going to make an excursion to Madrid’s Zoo. And we are going to ask them to bring a notebook to write down curiosities about all the animals and their habitats.
Then we form groups and we want them to explain the other groups what animal, habitat and ecosystem have they chosen. For that they can investigate by asking the zoo’s workers.
V. EXTENSION ACTIVITY
This activity is an extension for pupils with high capabilities or pupils that want to learn more about this topic. It consists in making a project about the danger extinction of some animals in their habitats.
The idea is that they search for information about the theme (on Internet, books, etc.) and then, they have to tell this information to the other partners. So, with this activity they can get used to work on their own and to talk to other partners when they do the little presentation.
VI. REINFORCEMENT ACTIVITY
19
In this activity, children have to create a little story about the topic that we give to them (about this theme). When they have finished the story they are going to draw it, so they work a lot of skills. They work writing, vocabulary, the imagination to create a story and to draw it, they improve their artistic skill when they are drawing, etc. They can also use the ITCs to create it.
At the end, each student is going to stick his story and drawing in a mural so everyone can see the work.
What we want to get with this activity is to consolidate better the knowledges of the theme and to show them that they can use those knowledges in a practical and creative way.
