Parts of a fish

Before moving in to other specific topic about underwater world, I went through the parts of the fish with the children today.

These are the vocabulary that they learned:

eye	mouth	head	fin
fins	tail	scales	gills

 

 

We went through the vocabulary then I got them to paste the parts accordingly. The children took turn to it for 2 rounds.

The children wanted to learn more about whales. Therefore, we shall start off with whales next week onwards.

Before we went into whales, I would like to let the children learn some facts about fish. Therefore, I prepared some simple lines for the children to go through and hopefully they could do some comparison with the whales in our later lesson in this week.

The facts about a fish are as followed:

u       Fish can swim.

u       Fish lives in the water.

u       Fish breathe underwater using gills and not lungs.

u       Fish have scales and fins. (no hair or fur)

u       Fish lay MANY eggs.

u       Fish is cold-blooded. 

Children could bring any books related to whales. It can be storybooks, information books or even toys about whales to share with their fellow classmates.
