ANIMALS
(60 WORD TO PRACTICE)
About the Topic: Animals
Animals are living things that can move, eat, and grow. There are many kinds of animals in the world — big and small, wild and domestic. Some animals live in homes, like dogs, cats, or birds. Others live in nature, like lions, elephants, tigers, fish, and monkeys.
Animals are very important for our planet. They help nature stay in balance. Some animals give us food, like cows give milk and chickens give eggs. Others help us in different ways — horses can carry things, dogs help people, and bees make honey.
Learning about animals helps students understand the world better. It also helps them describe what they see, talk about their favorite animals, and use English to share ideas about nature.

Benefits of the BoomWords Game
The BoomWords Game makes learning about animals exciting and active. The teacher says “Animals!” and students take turns naming an animal — “dog,” “cat,” “lion,” “fish,” etc. If a student repeats a word or takes too long to think, they say “Boom!” and sit down.
This game helps students:
Learn new animal vocabulary in a fun way.
Practice correct pronunciation and speaking confidence.
Think fast and stay focused during class.
Remember words better by saying them out loud.
Teachers can make the game more interesting by showing animal pictures, playing animal sounds, or asking students to act like animals. For example, a student can jump like a monkey or roar like a lion — this helps make learning lively and enjoyable!
