Three bird ideas

Describing words tell what an animal is like: a shiny black crow with a strong beak and bright eyes.
Think of colour, size and special parts: black feathers, two wings, a sharp beak.

Many animals have sound words: a crow says caw, a cow says moo, a cat says meow, a dog says woof.
These fun words make a poem sound real, almost like you can hear it!

Match the sound.

Crow → caw. Duck → quack. Cow → moo. Sound words bring animals to life.

In poems, line endings often rhyme: crow – below, fly – sky, tree – free.
Find a rhyme for crow: grow, slow, low.

Tip: rhyming words match the ending sound, not the spelling — “crow” and “go” rhyme even though they look different.
