The moose is often mistaken for which animal depicted on the Canadian quarter? Create a Venn diagram comparing moose and caribou.

Create Did You Know? fact cards about moose. Read the cards aloud, then post them around your school.

Discuss the concepts of metres and kilograms. Estimate whether a moose would fit through the classroom door, then measure the door frame using a metre stick. If a child weighs 30kg, how many children would it take to weigh as much as a moose?

Name animals, other than moose, that give birth to calves (e.g. dolphins, cows, camels, reindeer).

Create math questions about moose: estimate how many antlers would fit the width of your classroom. Compare answers with your peers.

Before reading, use a KWL chart to identify what you already know about moose and what you want to learn.

Commentaire descriptif

Early readers and read-aloud audiences will be captivated by “the biggest deer in the world.” They will learn that a male’s antlers “can be more than six feet across” and that the Yukon-Alaska moose weighs as much as 1400 pounds. This book is clearly divided into brief chapters. Each page describes a particular aspect of a moose’s body, behaviour or habitat in simple, straightforward prose. This book is an ideal resource for students conducting research for school projects. Complementary facts and subject-specific vocabulary words are set in boldface type or italics at the bottom of the page for easy reference. The bordered spreads consist of spare text on a white background accompanied by large close-up colour photographs on the facing page. One of the Amazing Animals series, the book ends with a story from Native American folklore (explaining how a moose’s behaviour caused catfish to have flat heads), an index and a page of recommended age-appropriate books and websites. Suggested moose-related projects for children are also included.
