HABITATS

TITLE: HABITATS

COURSE: 4 ^TH PRIMARY

SUBJECT: SCIENCE

INTRODUCTION

Children learn about biology and explore why certain animals live in their chosen habitats. It also teaches children about weather, earth sciences, and nature.

They will learn a small bit of information about different habitats. They will then take that knowledge and expand on it by working to focus on one habitat that you assign to them. They will share the information they learn with the class so all the students will have a greater understanding of the habitats.

OBJETIVES
