Description

Our Animal Adaptations lesson plan explores the various adaptations animal use for survival. During this lesson, students are asked to work in pairs to create a “new” animal, with its own adaptations for survival, and prepare a presentation that introduces their creation to the class, strengthening their public speaking skills and utilizing their creativity. Students are also asked to identify the adaptations that different animals have, including the type of adaptation, demonstrating their understanding of the lesson material.

At the end of the lesson, students will be able to identify and describe various animal adaptations used for survival in the environment.

Very happy with Animal Adaptations

This was easy to incorporate into my online class and has proven to be a useful supplement. My grade 4's particularly enjoyed the "make your own animal" task. Will definitely use this again next year!

Animals Adaptation

This material was informative and quite simple and easy to understand. When I engaged my students they too understood the content and was able to successfully complete the activities. This is really an excellent document.
