What's In A Habitat?

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This What's In A Habitat? lesson plan also includes:
  • Graphic & Image
  • Project
  • Worksheet
  • Join to access all included materials

The concept of a habitat being a home for animals is the main thrust of this life sciences resource. Learners complete a cut-and-paste activity using a fine worksheet that's embedded in the plan. They must place four very different animals inside circles on the worksheet that show where they live. Lots of good discussion about habitat takes place before the worksheets are passed out. A nice way to introduce this important concept to young ones!
