🎯 WALT: We Are Learning To sort living things and habitat features

• I can match animals to their habitat needs.
Print pages 2–5 on cardstock. Cut around each card. Each card has a clear illustrated picture area above a separate word and information box.
For ESOL and dyslexia support, read the labels and captions aloud. Begin with picture clues, then introduce the words. Children may point, name, sort, draw, speak, or work with a partner.
Use the cards to sort living things and habitat features. Ask children to explain WHY an animal needs a particular feature.
Extension: Children can create a new rainforest card, draw its picture, and explain what the living thing needs.
