Using The Jungle Book in the English Language Classroom - Year 4 KSSR

Entry Points for Introducing The Jungle Book characters for Year 4 Literature lessons.

1. Use pictures (easily available online).






2. Use questions (Bell Ringer strategy)
    i. What would you do if you found a newborn at your doorstep? Who would you take it to?
    ii. Do you think children can be brought up by animals? Why? Do you know of any true stories?
    iii. If you could become another animal, which animal would it be? Why?

3. Relate to fictional characters with similar stories like Tarzan and George of the Jungle.

4. Play audio of animal sounds, let your children guess the animals. You could get children to role-play and make the sounds and a guessing game could be done with full student participation.

5. Let children watch the Disney cartoon version.
