Before you read the book
Think:- What job does a vet do? Have you ever been to a vet? Who do you visit when you are poorly?
Read 'The Zoo Vet' Story
Read through this week's story, ‘The Zoo Vet’, with your grown up. You can find the link to the book on our front nursery page.
After you have read the story, discuss what it was about. (You can use the 'Animal Adventures' vocabulary to support this discussion.)
Did you like the story? What was your favourite part? Do you have a favourite animal?
Story Sequence
After you have read our new story, see if you can remember what happened.
Use the story sequence cards (see below) and see if you can put the story in order - Which part comes first?
Re-watch the story if you get stuck or once you have completed it to check if you were right.
A Vet for the day!
Our story is all about a Vet who works at a zoo to help make animals feel better.
Pretend you are a Vet and use your teddies and toys to be the different zoo animals.
Can you look after the animals and make them better again?
Do they need the same help or do they need different things?
Use the Zoo Vet story to help with your own ideas.
You can use the Patient details sheet to draw and write about what is wrong with the animals.
