What this worksheet teaches

• Sort living things into plants and animals, and explain what makes something living.
• Match common animals to where they live: water, land, trees or underground.
• Describe what plants need to grow: water, sunlight, air and soil.
• Recognise that baby animals often look different from their parents and match a few common pairs.

How to use this worksheet

Read each question aloud before your child writes. At this age reading load, not science knowledge, is usually what slows the sheet down. If your child answers correctly when you read the question but not when they read it alone, the science is fine and the reading is the thing to keep practising.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. Which animal can change its color?
2. Which animal lives in icy regions?

Frequently asked questions

Is any of this tested at Grade 1?

Most Grade 1 curricula assess exactly these basics: living versus non-living, plant parts, and where animals live. The worksheet stays inside that scope rather than adding harder classification.

My child thinks anything that moves is alive. Is that normal?

Very normal at Grade 1. Cars, fans and clouds all move, so movement feels like the rule. Point out that living things grow, need food or water, and make young ones - a toy car does none of those.

Does my child need to know animal names in English before starting?

The pictures and the common animal names in this worksheet are chosen to be familiar ones - cat, cow, fish, bird. If a name is new, say it aloud once and let your child repeat it; the worksheet then doubles as vocabulary practice.
