Animal Adaptations Interactive Activities

This product contains 6 interactive learning activities (27 pages total) focused on the specific physical adaptations of various animals. Featured animals include: camel, polar bear, cheetah, woodpecker, giraffe, and platypus. For each animal, students will read an included article about its physical adaptations, create a lift-the-flap model of the animal, and create a habitat poster in which the animal will be placed. Works great for a science unit on habitats or ecosystems, adaptations of living things, or animal classifications. This product also works well to incorporate science and nonfiction reading into the reading and literacy curriculum, as students must read the included nonfiction science articles prior to creating the models. by Rebecca Bettis
