Subject: Hi!

Hi Sasha,

I love your pet canary! Can you help me choose one? I want a bird too and you know so much about them. Also, I have your animal book at our house. Jon asked me to give it to you. He’s sorry that he forgot to give it to you before.

See you later,

Please help! I am with my grandparents today. Can you take care of Spot?

His food is in the kitchen with his water bowl. He eats two times a day, morning and afternoon.

Thanks!

Call me at 5 when I finish at the hospital – I can pick something up on my way home.

Text A and B are both about........

Blue whales can live …….. about 80 years.

Wolves hunt …….. their food at night.

Dinosaurs were not the only animals to roam the earth millions of years ago. Let’s take a look at some of the world’s oldest mammals.

A - Smilodon

Smilodons were prehistoric big cats. They were about the same size as a tiger but they had two huge front teeth. These sharp teeth were used for killing prey. Smilodons were predators that fed on large plant-eaters like camels and bison. Scientists believe that when these large animals died out, the smilidons died out too.

B - Megalonyx

Megalonyx was a giant ground sloth that lived in prehistoric times. On average, they were three metres tall and weighed a ton. Megalonyx mainly ate plants but scientists think that they also occasionally ate meat. They stood on their back legs and balanced themselves with their thick tail to reach high into the trees. They cut their food from the trees using their sharp claws.

C - Mammoth

Mammoths were huge prehistoric mammals that looked similar to elephants. Like elephants, they were herbivores and they had long trunks. However, unlike elephants, mammoths had thick hair to protect them from the cold. The average mammoth weighed over eight tons and was four metres tall.
