Me the Helping Teacher! Living things and no living things. Science Interactive Living Things Activities

 Welcome to Me the Helping Teacher!

Welcome to the fascinating world of living things! 

Living things are all around us, from the plants in our gardens to the animals in the zoo. But what exactly makes something a living thing? Well, one of the most important characteristics of living things is that they have needs that must be met in order to survive. These needs include things like air, food, water, shelter, and even sunlight.

But living things are more than just needy; they are also dynamic and ever-changing. They grow, move, breathe, and they reproduce. From the tiniest insect to the mightiest elephant, every living thing has a unique way of interacting with the world around them.

Of course, not everything we encounter is a living thing. Non-living things, like rocks and buildings, don't have needs or characteristics like those of living things. But even though they may not be alive, they still play an important role in our world.

So, whether you're marveling at a majestic tree or examining a curious rock, take a moment to appreciate the incredible diversity of living and non-living things that make up our world.
