The gorilla is a very large ape that lives in African forests. Gorillas are the largest of the primates. All gorillas living in the wild are endangered and in danger of extinction.

Review the gorilla theme lesson plan and crafts to present additional information, images, printable crafts and other activities.

Alphabet activities:

Children Age 3 and under:

Print a letter G coloring page. Select and print a gorilla coloring page, and print it behind the letter G page or on a separate page if using paints to decorate later. Discuss other letter G words found on the worksheet.

Finger Tracing: Trace letter G's in upper and lower case with your finger as you also sound out the letter. Invite the children to do the same on their coloring page.

Children can trace and color the letter G's. After completing coloring the letter, encourage children to color the image. Write the word gorilla on the margin.

Handwriting worksheet tips:

Encourage the children to trace the dotted letter, and explain the direction of the arrows and numbers that help them trace the letter correctly.

During the demonstration, you may want to count out loud as you trace so children become aware of how the number order aids them in the writing process.

Have the children find all the letter G's in upper and lower case on the page and encourage them to circle them.

Children ages 3+:
