From the tiniest insect to burrowing badger, we share our environment with a wide range of wildlife.
Encourage your young learners to explore the world around them, think about the impact humans have on wildlife and what we can do, as compassionate citizens, to protect them.
These activities introduce pupils to the concept of gathering evidence on different animals’ and plants’ habitats through investigation.
Part 2 encourages pupils to think about how animals are suited to a particular environment.
