Big idea

Needs help explain where plants and animals can live.

Words

  • resource something a living thing uses
  • dry little water present
  • woodland place with many trees
  • suitable meets the need

All words on the Word Wall

Talk together

  • What resources are here?
  • Which living thing can use them?
  • What would be missing elsewhere?

Get ready

  • Pond, woodland and sunny meadow mats; fish, deer, grass and tree picture cards.

Safety

  • A grown-up chooses a safe accessible route and stays close; hold hands near streets. Stay away from traffic, wildlife, unknown plants and standing water; use photos indoors if needed.
  • A grown-up stays within reach of water. Use small amounts in shallow unbreakable trays, away from power; wipe spills and wash hands. Do not drink test water.

How to help

Let your child listen, look and try before you explain. Point to the next picture if needed. Accept drawing, pointing or a voice response; writing is optional. Save the child’s own work with a date.
