SE ACERCAN LAS VACACIONES

HOLA AMIG@S! ESTAMOS TERMINANDO EL TRIMESTRE Y APUNTO DE DAR VACACIONES Y CON ELLO NOS INICIAmOS EN UN NUEVO E INTERESANTE TEMA DE NATURAL SCIENCE ESTA VEZ NOS ADENTRAMOS EN EL MARAVILLOSO MUNDO DE LOS SERES VIVOS Y NO VIVOS y su clasificación.

                        " LIVING -  NON LIVING " 

                         

                  " CLASSIFYING LIVING THINGS" 

                                    " ANIMALS " 

                        

• Feed on other living things.
• Can move. Most animals can move from one place to another.
• Can be oviparous or viviparous.
• Have senses.

                                    " PLANTS "

• Produce their own food.
• Can’t move from one place to another, but can move towards light or water.
• Plants are born from seeds or spores.

                                      " FUNGI "

• Feed on other living things that are decomposing.
• Can’t move.
• One example is mould.
• More similar to animals than plants.

•                          " OTHER ORGANISMS "
  
  
  
  
  Algae produce their own food but have different parts to plants. One example is seaweed.
• 
  

• 
  
            
  Bacteria are very small organisms. We can only see them under a microscope.
• 
  

•           

            " LIFE PROCESSES OF ANIMALS AND PLANTS "


                                                       " NUTRITION "


                           

• Living things obtain nutrients from food. Nutrients help them to grow and function properly.
• Animals do not make their own food. Some eat meat, some eat plants and some eat meat and plants.
• Plants use sunlight, water and nutrients from the soil to make their own food.

                                                       " REPRODUCTION "

• Living things reproduce. Reproduction means making new living things.
• Some animals give birth to live young and others lay eggs.
• Most plants reproduce by making seeds that grow into new plants. Some produce spores.

                                                        " INTERACTION "

                                         

• Living things interact. Moving, touching and communicating are examples of interaction.
• Animals move, communicate and react to the world around them. Some animals live in groups and some animals live alone.
• Plants also react to their environment. They grow towards the light and their roots grow towards water. Some plants open and close, and some plants can climb.

                                    " plants have similarities and differences "

This helps us to classify them into three subgroups: grasses, bushes and trees.

Grasses have a soft stem. They are thin, flexible and usually short.
Wheat is a grass. It has a long stem and many kernels at the end of each stem. 

We make bread from wheat.

                              

Bushes have woody stems with low branches. They are taller than grasses and live longer.
The blackberry bush has lots of long branches. These branches have thorns. The fruit is called the blackberry.
Trees have a thick, woody stem called a trunk. The branches grow out from the trunk, high above the ground.

Deciduous trees lose all their leaves in autumn. 

Oak trees are deciduous.

Evergreen trees produce leaves all year round. 

Pine trees are evergreen

¡ HASTA PRONTO AMIG@S !
