2. What's a Habitat? (Thurs. 2/18/10):
When you are hungry and your stomach is growling you need to find some of this = food
When you are thirsty this is the best liquid for you to drink and it's not soda = water
This one word means a place to live and it rhymes with place = space
If you were outside and there was a bad storm you would look for this type of place = shelter
3. Make a Habitat (Fri. 2/26/10):
This is the Karner blue butterfly habitat. The Karner blue butterfly is important to protect it because its beautiful and endangered. You should also protect its habitat because it is the only thing it uses to survive, especially the lupine plant, which is also endangered.
4. Food Chain
5. Speak Up for Animals!
