Animal Matching Grid

August 3, 2009 by Ami 18 Comments

This is a simple matching activity. All you need to put this one together is cardstock, lamination, and magnets.

1. Download and print the file.

2. Laminate both pages.

3. Cut apart the extra animals.

4. Put magnets on the extra animals.

5. You're ready to go!

    Uhh…is it just me or does the wrong file open? It is an animal matching game but not the one pictured.

    It isn’t just you… it’s not the matching game pictured. Maybe a glitch they can fix? I really like the picture here…

    I’m not getting the same animals pictured either and would prefer the ones pictured for my toddler.

    Ok, this is FINALLY fixedโ€ฆ sorry about that everyone.

    I actually clicked the link and downloaded and VIEWED the pdf to make sure itโ€™s the right one. I really think it is this time.

    I can get the link to open but now I can’t get it to print. I even tried it in 2 different browsers. It just hangs there.

    Hi – Doesnt the animals you cut out when laminated before you cut – doesnt the laminate part peel up? I am assumuing that you cut them out first and then laminate? Or do you have some magic pouches that self seal?
    Thanks so much for all your hard work and posts!!!

    Hi Sarah,

    The pouches are pretty magical. They do self seal. It’s just a cheap Scotch brand, but it works GREAT!

    I am trying to print the animal matching sheet, but everything I click on the link it brings up a blank page. What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks!

    What are the dimensions of the printed page so I do not waste ink? What card stock size needed?

  13. Ami says

    February 23, 2013 at 11:48 am

    Hi Janice,

    I simply printed on a standard size piece of cardstock. ๐Ÿ™‚

  14. Janice Gorrell says

    February 23, 2013 at 11:53 am

    I assume that is 8 1/2 x 11? Thank you so much, I will try it!
    Appreciate you sharing your ideas!

    Janice,

    Yep! ๐Ÿ™‚ Have fun!

    I am having trouble printing the Animal Matching Sheet by clicking on the picture? The activity is from http://www.walkingbytheway.com. Can you give me any advice?

    So I got both pages laminated and put magnets on the back of the animals that I cut out. However, they do not stick through the laminated animal page on the cookie sheet. When I lift the cookie sheet they slide off. Where did you purchase the magnets, what size or what strength. Do you have any suggestions as to how to get the magnets to stay? Maybe it is the type of cookie sheet I am using. Aluminum air bake does not work. I am using a non-stick metal cookie sheet. Is that the problem?

    Hi I am going to start homeschooling next year for the first time. Trying to get all prepared. I love all the ideas on your site. I am trying to print the animal grid. When I click on it, it takes me to a whole other homeschooling share website…..is this fixable? Thanks
