Living and Non Living Things

*** there are lots of links and activities today that are screen based and not hands-on (I am sorry!) you might want to stretch this out over a few days! *** 

We have learned what plants need and what animals need to stay alive. So all plants and animals are alive (or have been alive). 

What does it mean to be alive? Tell your parent (or whoever is reading this to you!) what you think "alive" means. They can write down all of your ideas on a piece of paper, just like I would on the big chart at the carpet :) (Parents -- write down all of the ideas, even the wild ones. If your child changes their mind later, then we will cross it off the list -- this is the part of the process)

Next, please watch our google slides presentation in the link that was emailed out to you!

Now, if you want to, you can change your list - cross things off or add things if you want to. 

Listen to Ms. Brown reading What's Alive by clicking HERE!
In the book it asks you to draw pictures and sort things into Living or Non-Living things.  If you want to draw them, you can! I would love to see them!

Try It! 
Now you can try to sort Living from Non Living things. You can do this by looking at the pictures that Ms. Brown sent to you -- OR by going to the Boom link that Ms. Brown sent, and testing out the Boom Cards! 

Try It!
Draw and Label a picture that has a living thing in it and a non living thing.  For example, if I drew the picture of the cover of the What's Alive book, I could label the cat as a living thing, and the trowel (little shovel) as a non-living thing.
