The Noun Tree Poster
Herds, flocks, packs, troops, schools, and pods...Flock, which is generally associated with birds, has a strong association with sheep and since this is a culturally important metaphor (think of the various religions), We used the collective noun flock for sheep as well as birds.
Games to Play with These Cards: Fish
This game plays like the game fish, but with a catch: First, they have to ask if the other student has the collective noun and then they have to ask about the animal associated with the collective noun. They have to match both collective noun and the associated animal to get the point.
QA1: Do you have a pack?
AS2: Yes, I do. (Or: No, I don't. Go fish.)
QA1: Is it a pack of wolves?
AS2: Yes, it is. (Or: No, it isn't. Go fish.)
In order to play this game, you will have to print off two sets of cards and glue them onto poster board and cut them out.
