Y can be hard to teach, and a yak makes it fun. Your students build Yolanda the Yak, research with a fact sheet, then write about what they would do with a yak.
This yak craft gives your students a cheery letter Y animal to build, plus writing prompts that turn it into a real writing project. Students make Yolanda the Yak, research with the animal fact sheet, then write about what they would do if they were or owned a yak. It is a stand alone piece of my A-Z animal writing unit, so you can start with just 1 animal.
