Famous Animals Quiz 🦓



Here is a standalone CST activity page, namely a picture quiz with music and film clips attached. There is quite a bit of material here, so the quiz could be split over several sessions, especially if there is a focus on singalongs and reminiscences.


As usual, the aim of this session is enjoyment, not competition. Give clues, initials, first words etc to help the conversation flow and responses generally. Celebrate engagement and inclusion, rather than keeping score. If you are to keep score, do so in teams so as to avoid highlighting poor cognitive performance of any member. As always, a song sung, a dance danced or a word described through gesture are as important as any correct verbal answers.


Here goes ...
