This is a powerpoint of the recently published world cup story of Dog United playing for England against the Australian Socceroos. The story is in rhyme and an earlier resource featuring the first book in the series studies rhyme for students.
In each of the dog united books the dogs play animals or birds (the nicknames of the country teams ) In order to try to win the game the dogs’ detective skills are used to identify the animals’ adaptations and therefore a way of winning .These books are therefore great for introducing animal adaptation as a topic.
In this book the animals are dressed in lion manes as a disguise in order to play for England. Students will learn fascinating information about Kangaroos but will enjoy engaging with the humorous football based tale .
This story sees the team in the knock out stages of the World Cup.
