A habitat provides two important things for animals: food and shelter. It is a safe place for animals to reproduce and thrive. For example, a frog's habitat is a pond, which provides water to spawn in and damp air so the frog does not dry out, as well as food. Birds also need specific habitat elements to thrive, including camouflaged feathers to avoid predators, an abundance of food like worms, and plenty of materials to build nests for their young.

1. Habitats
L.O. To be able to understand that
where a plant or animal lives is called
its habitat.

2. Where do we live?
As humans, we are able to
live all over the world; in
the most adverse
conditions. We are able
to adapt to our
environment – however
hostile – as we design
clothes and shelter to
suit the surrounding
area. This protects us
from the weather and
animals that may be
harmful to us.

damp air so not to dry out.

4. Questions:
What do birds need to
thrive?
1. Feathers must be

2. Lots of food, such as
worms, in abundance.
3. Plenty of materials,
such as twigs, to
build good nests for
their young.
