SET OF CARDS ‘PETS’ 006003 Contents: 24 cards made of thick (1,4 mm) cardboard (85 x 85 mm) with coloured and black-and-white pictures on them. Objective: to encourage a child to learn about pets, develop observation skills and a sense of responsibility, teach children to take care of those who are weaker than themselves. The tool is intended for lessons of natural science, language development and fine arts. Colourful images of pets (dog, cat, guinea pig, hamster, rabbit, turtle, fish, canary, lizard and parrot) are depicted on 10 cards. The drawings are realistic and remind of images of real animals and their fur colour. Blackand-white drawings of pets environment (aquarium, cage, terrarium, mat, toy, leash, etc.) appear on the other ten cards. A child has to find appropriate pairs of cards, i.e. a card with a black-and-white drawing of an appropriate environment must be chosen for a card with a pet (fish aquarium). Fragments of coloured drawings of animals can be found on the other side of cards with environment drawings. This makes it easier for children to find a suitable cage for a particular pet. Black-and-white drawings appear on both sides of a generalizing card: home environment where pets live is depicted on one side and a child taking pets outside for a walk is shown on the other side. Drawings are used for grouping cards with pets according to their care type: one group consists of animals which need to be taken outside and the other group includes animals which usually stay inside. A blackand-white drawing of a child’s room can be found on the last card which reminds us that pets must have their own space and separate territory at home and that it is not advisable to keep several pets in one room where a child is resting and learning. Age: 3 – 6 years old children, children with special needs.

SET OF CARDS ‘FOREST ANIMALS’ 004095 Contents: 20 cards made of thick (1,4 mm) cardboard (85 x 85 mm) with coloured and black-and-white pictures on them. Objective: to encourage children to take interest in environment, identify forest animals, develop children’s observation skills. Colourful images of animals are depicted on 10 cards (moose, deer, bear, wild boar, wolf, fox, hare, squirrel, hedgehog, and mouse). The drawings remind of images of real animals and their fur. Black-and-white images of the same animals are on the rest of the 10 cards. The position of the animals and details in the environment in colourful and black-and-white images are different, therefore, it will not be so easy to find the appropriate pairs. The material will not only be of use for becoming acquainted with nature, but also for development of language skills and art lessons. Age: 3 – 6 years old children, children with special needs.

DRAWING-BOOK ‘FOREST ANIMALS’ 004094 Objectives: to develop sense of sight and hand movements, to train the patience, to vary art lessons. Format: A4, 40 pages. 10 colourful drawings with animals whose fur remind of real fur are depicted in the drawing book. Next to the each opened drawing there is a blank sheet on which a child can try to copy by hand the drawing he/ she sees. He/she can copy it by trying to use the same drawing technique, drawing it regardfully, choosing corresponding colours and copying the outlines of the animal and texture of the fur. On the next page you will find an outline - drawing provided for painting. The material will provide an opportunity to vary and individualize tasks: children who have got a talent for drawing can copy by hand, and those who have got some difficulties with it or who simply like painting can paint the outline-drawings. The blank pages may be easily torn out of the drawing book. Let’s make an art exhibition when the children will be done with their tasks!

SET OF CARDS ‘EMOTIONS OF THE MOMENT’ 003947 Contents: 20 cards made of thick (1,4 mm) cardboard (85 x 85 mm) with coloured pictures on them.

Having examined the drawn animals on the cards (expressions on their faces, gestures and attitude) a child tries to recognize and tell different kinds of emotions. The recognized emotions will help the child to speak about his/her own experience and feelings, analyse and tell about various situations when he/ she usually feels gloomy, smiles, yawns etc. The cards may be used to encourage a child to copy the emotions he/she sees, and analyse the possible causes (and solutions) to each appropriate emotion. The material may be effectively used in foreign language lessons to acquire adjectives that describe feelings.
