Animals and their Habitats (Part Two)

This is the second part of our habitat lesson.  Click this link for the first part of my post.

Materials used:

Animal Habitat Cards by Pinay Homeschooler

Books:

• Hidden in the Grass
• Top Ten Deserts
• Rainforests

Activity 1:  Camouflage.  We talk about how the animals adapt to their environment and protect their selves from predators.  Here we used Legos  and see if we can easily spot the animals.

 

Activity 2:  Watching videos in Youtube on the different habitats of the world.

  

Activity 3:  Spelling and vocabulary.  We used the moveable alphabets I purchased from Absorbent Minds.

 

To spice up our spelling activity, I have these pouches and use it to make a guess the word game.  I place the letters for each word to guess in the pouch and added clues like picture of an animal figure. 

             

Activity 4:  I printed our coloring pages for Mavi to work on.

             

Activity 5:  Mapping.  We identify the top five deserts of the world and plot them in the map.

            

And that concludes our habitat lesson :)  Thank you for taking time reading my post.  We'll do more interesting stuff in our next study unit.

Ciao!
