Animals Around Us

Many animals live around us: birds in the sky, dogs on the ground, and fish in the water. We can group animals by where they live and by how many legs they have. Use the slider to pick a habitat and see which animals live there. Sorting by number of legs shows what animals in the same group share.

Examples and Unit Test
Example 1
If we sort a snake, a bird, a dog, and an ant by the number of legs, how many legs does each have?
1
We can sort animals by leg count. A snake has no legs, and a bird has 2 legs.
2
A dog has 4 legs, and an ant has 6 legs.
▸ Snake 0 · bird 2 · dog 4 · ant 6
Grouping animals with the same number of legs makes them easy to classify.
Example 2
Where do a fish and a bird each live, and what do they move with?
1
A fish lives in water and swims with fins.
2
A bird flies in the sky and moves with wings.
▸ Fish = water, fins / bird = sky, wings
Animals have body shapes that fit the place where they live.
Unit Test
Which animal has 6 legs?
①Snake
②Dog
③Ant
④Bird
⑤Fish
▸ ③ Ant
1
A snake and a fish have no legs, a bird has 2, and a dog has 4.
2
An ant is an insect, so it has 6 legs.
