Animals and What They Need to Survive
Animals and What They Need to Survive
First grade walks are based on animals and their habitats. Students learn what animals need to live: food, water, warmth, air and shelter. They explore how different habitats meet the needs or organisms throughout the year and observe birds and other common animals.
Please note: All adults who work with children in the Big Backyard program must have a valid CORI. Please click here to fill out a CORI form. CORI checks are good for 3 years. Check with your school office if you have additional questions.
