Extra activities:
The books we read had both alligators and crocodiles in them so we talked about the differences, like:

• crocodiles have longer, more V-shaped heads and alligators have shorter, wider U-shaped ones
• crocodiles are better adapted to living in seawater, where alligators favor fresh water
• crocodiles are more aggressive than alligators
• crocodiles tend to have a lighter appearance and alligators a darker one
• crocodiles in the wild are found all over the world, while alligators are only found in the US and China
