1. Exploring Wild Animals

   Wild animals live in nature without help from humans. They find their own food, water, and shelter. We can group wild animals into different types:

   • Mammals: Lions, tigers, bears, and monkeys. Most mammals have fur or hair.
   • Birds: Eagles, owls, and parrots. They have feathers, wings, and beaks.
   • Reptiles: Crocodiles, snakes, and lizards. They have dry, scaly skin.
   • Sea Animals: Whales, dolphins, sharks, and sea turtles. They live in water.

   Where Do Wild Animals Live?

   A habitat is the natural home or environment of an animal. Different animals need different habitats to survive:

   • Forest and Jungle: Warm or green areas with many trees. Monkeys, tigers, and parrots live here.
   • Desert: Hot and dry lands with very little rain. Camels, scorpions, and desert snakes live here.
   • Ocean: Deep, salty water covering most of the Earth. Sharks, whales, and octopuses live here.
   • Polar Region: Freezing lands covered with snow and ice. Polar bears and penguins live here.
   • Grassland / Savannah: Wide plains with tall grass and few trees. Zebras, giraffes, and lions live here.

   Listen and Read the Model

   Look at how Emily presents her favourite wild animal to her classmates:

   "Hello, everyone! Today, I want to talk about the cheetah. A cheetah is a big wild cat. It is a mammal. Cheetahs live in the grasslands of Africa. They have yellow fur with black spots. They are carnivores, so they hunt smaller animals like gazelles. Cheetahs can run very fast! Thank you for listening."

   What makes Emily's presentation clear?

   1. She gives the name and type of the animal.
   2. She describes its habitat (where it lives).
   3. She explains its physical features (fur, colour, spots).
   4. She mentions its food and an interesting fact (speed).

   Use the Speaking Frames

   You can follow the same model to talk about any wild animal. Fill in the blanks with your chosen animal's information:

   • Introduction: "Today, I am going to talk about the [animal name]."
   • Type of Animal: "It is a [mammal / bird / reptile / sea animal]."
   • Habitat: "It lives in the [ocean / forest / desert / polar region / grassland]."
   • Appearance: "It has got [big wings / sharp teeth / thick fur / a long tail]."
   • Diet and Habit: "It eats [plants / fish / meat], and it can [swim fast / fly high / climb trees]."

   Practice Tip: Practise saying these sentences out loud to describe a polar bear, an eagle, or a dolphin!
