About this printable

This printable is a scaffolded organiser for comparing two habitats: each habitat gets a labelled box for pictures/examples and a name, followed by a three-column grid (Habitat 1 / Both the same / Habitat 2) with rows for climate, water, plants, animals, land/features and human impact. At the bottom are short response areas for key similarities, key differences and a 'What I learned' reflection. It supports structured note-taking during a lesson, fieldwork or research task and prompts concise comparison and evidence-based thinking.
