Animal Report Printable for a Fun & Engaging Study

Sharing is caring!

Learning about animals, research and writing this week with our FREE Animal Report printable.

We are in the midst of studying endangered animals. Last week, I shared how we were learning about tigers.  This week, we are continuing our study by discussing what animals, in general, eat and how they survive in the wild.

We especially are interested in our backyard animals during winter. Here is the information we are learning about animals in winter.

Every winter we participate in the Backyard Bird Count. In addition, we watch the behavior of the deer, foxes, and squirrels in our immediate area. We pay attention to feeding habits, markings, even signs of disease. In the past, we’ve noticed eye issues in birds and big, bare spots on squirrels.  Winter is a good time to really watch animals and their behavior since we aren’t outside as much gardening, riding bikes, taking long hikes, or doing yard work.

Animal-Related Field Trips

Make the most of your planned or impromptu animal “field trips.” There are times when we are at the park and spend time following a lizard around a sunny area of the park or observe the tadpoles in a pond–these are great learning opportunities. We’ve often used these as springboards for a library visit to gather books about an animal or an art project.

Here are some field trip ideas both here in the U.S. and abroad:

Once you and your student read the information below, select an animal or two to research. Organize information into a report form using the animal report printable we have created.

The animal report printable below is a great tool for younger learners. They can use it to know what kind of questions they should be answering in an animal report. It will help them dig deeper in their research. Depending on the age, you can have the child answer in complete sentences or just a few lines. Older students can use this form as a start to a larger report or use many of these to record basic information about a larger number of animals.
