Kids Love Animals

When people think about whales, they often relate them to extremely large sea animals. While there are several species of extremely large whales, there are also smaller whales as well. Whales have blowholes that allow them to breathe air. When taking a breath, the whale will blow out excess air and then take a breath in. Whales are social animals that teach, learn and cooperate.

Whales are often studied in science curriculum along with other ocean animals. The curriculum includes science vocabulary that relate to whales. Along with the vocabulary, teachers enjoy including games and puzzles in their lessons. Practicing with games about whales is helpful to students by reinforcing the material. Another great benefit to these games is the increase in spelling, reading, and retention skills.
