Habitat Vocabulary
栖息地词汇
Description
Name and use vocabulary for where living things are found — habitat, environment, microhabitat, conditions, woodland, ocean, desert, rainforest, pond — and use terms to describe what animals need to survive: food, water, shelter, space, and suitable conditions
Mastery Evidence
- Match animals to their habitats and explain the match using 'adapted to', 'conditions', or 'shelter'
- Correctly use 'habitat' and 'microhabitat' to describe different scales of environment with examples
- Name at least three contrasting habitats and describe what makes each distinctive
Assessment Prompt
Can your child explain why a polar bear couldn't survive in a rainforest — using the word 'habitat' or 'conditions' rather than just 'it's too hot'?
