Hidden in their habitat -- Appendices 1-6 Summary "The world is teeming with animal life. Even the most unexpected places can host a diverse range of creatures. As humans, we share our wonderful planet with many other animals. Taking the time to really look at another species can provide a window into the similarities and differences among living beings, and can help us to appreciate how we are all part of a single, gloriously complex ecological system. The Schoolyard safari unit is an ideal way to link science with literacy in the classroom. By observing the features and behaviour of small animals, students glimpse the diversity of animal life. Students explore small animals leading to a better understanding of how their adaptations help them survive in their habitats. Through investigations, students learn how animals move, feed and protect themselves. They explore and compare the habitats of different animals" -- p. i Analysis Australian Notes "PrimaryConnections is supported by the Australian Government"--T.p. verso First published: 2008 Fully aligned with the Australian Curriculum Spiral binding Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (page viii) Audience For primary school teachers Subject Biology -- Study and teaching (Primary) Life sciences -- Study and teaching (Primary) Literacy -- Study and teaching (Primary) First grade (Education) -- Curricula -- Australia.
