English for Kids Step by Step: Printable Flashcards: Animals and Their Babies. Part 1.

In my previous blog post dedicated to a reading comprehension passage that features a cow and her calf, I mentioned once again that I created 40 printable flashcards to use for teaching kids some English names of young animals. These 40 flashcards make a part of a big set of more than 280 animal-related flashcards that accompany 11 reading comprehension passages. All these flashcards and worksheets constitute a reading comprehension kit.
