Animals

What animals did you see in the previous video? 

Do you like animals such as the ones you saw in the video? Why (not)?

You probably already noticed how there were all different kinds of animals. However, were all of them present in equal amounts? (Was elke soort aanwezig in dezelfde hoeveelheid?)

How many lions can you see?

1. One
2. Three
3. Five

There are animals who are alone in the video.
On the other hand, there are also several animals who showed up in groups. When there is more than one thing from a certain group, how do we call that in Dutch?

Do you remember what we call that in English?

To freshen up!

You have already seen this last year so here you can find the most important rules of the plural form.

Watch this short fragment from the video again.

Try to pay attention to how many antilopes you can see.

Was it easy to tell exactly how many antilopes you saw?

If the answer from the pupils is somewhat the same as the suggested answer, then that will also count as correct.
