INTERDEPENDENCE &ANIMAL HABITATS


Benchmarks• Big Idea 17: Interdependence• SC.2.L.17.1 Compare and contrast the basic needs that all living things,

including humans, have for survival. Cognitive Complexity: Moderate • SC.2.L.17.2 Recognize and explain that living things are found all over

Earth, but each is only able to live in habitats that meet its basic needs. Cognitive Complexity: Moderate

• Big Idea 1: The Practice of Science• SC.2.N.1.1 Raise questions about the natural world, investigate them in

teams through free explorations, and generate appropriate explanations based on those explorations. Cognitive Complexity: High

• SC.2.N.1.5 Distinguish between empirical observation (what you see, hear, feel, smell, or taste) and ideas or inferences (what you think). Cognitive Complexity: Moderate


Lesson Objectives:By the end of this lesson, students should be able to:• Identify the basic needs of living things.• Understand that plants in order to grow need soil, water, light, and air. • Recognize that animals including humans need air, water, and food.• Recognize that all animals depend on plants. Some animals eat plants for food. Other animals eat animals that

eat plants for food.• Compare and contrast what living things need to survive. • Ask questions, investigate, observe and measure to collect data as evidence to explain different needs of plants

for growth.• Identify the many different homes animals have.• Understand that oceans, deserts, and forests are three kinds of environments on Earth.• Recognize some plants and animals that live in each of these environments.• Determine where animals should live based on physical features.• Determine where plants should live based on physical features.• Explain the reasons why animals have different habitats.• Describe the needs of different animals.• Identify the needs that different habitats are able to fulfill for plants and/or animals.• Recognize some of the ways in which living things in their surroundings are dependent upon each other for

food and places to live.Key Vocabulary:• habitat, survival, shelter, energy, environments, oceans, deserts, forests, habitat, woodlands, grasslands,

prairie, wetlands, marsh, basic needs, adapt, survival


Lesson Essential Questions:

• What are basic needs for living things?• What do plants need in order to grow?• Why do animals depend on plants?


Basic needs of living things to survive– Energy– Food– Water– Oxygen– Shelter– Space– Right range of temperature

“Good Partners” CD Song 5Sing to the tune of: “Frére Jacques”Plants and animals,Are good partners.Yes, they are.Yes, they are.Plants can be a shelter,For animals to live in.That’s a fact.That’s a fact.Plants and animals,Are good partners.Yes, they are.Yes, they are.Feathers, fur, and parts of plants,Can be used to build a nest.

That’s a fact.That’s a fact.Plants and animals,Are good partners.Yes, they are.Yes, they are.An egret helps a rhino,By eating flies that hurt him.That’s a fact.That’s a fact.

Connecting Learning

• What do all plants and animals need to grow? Answer: Air, water, food, shelter, the right temperature, space.• Where do plants get what they need to live? Where do people get

what they need to live? Answer: Both get them from their habitat and from each other.• Which kind of animal needs more food and water, a lion or a mouse? Answer: Large animals need more food and water to live.• What are nutrients? Answer: Materials that living things need to live and grow.

• What are you wondering now plants and animals?
