Write three things that you have learnt about owls. Remember to write sentences that include a capital letter and full stop.

Can you investigate how living things are suited to their habitat, what the animals eat in a habitat and how the plants provide shelter for them?

Last half term we learned about habitats. Talk to your partner about what you remember.
A habitat is a place where an animal lives, providing it with water, food and shelter.
Many animals have special features or skills to help them survive in their habitat. They are adapted to live there.

• Where is a polar bear’s den?
• In which habitat do polar bears live?
• How are they adapted to live in their habitat?

Work as a team.
• Jot down the habitats the animals live in and think about how each animal has adapted to their habitats.

Choose one of the animals that you have researched together, record in you Science book how they have adapted to their habitat.
