Animal Habitats: Cut and Paste

Match each animal to its home in this first- and second-grade life science worksheet! Learners will start by cutting out each of six animals at the bottom of the page. Then, by applying what they know about each animal and its needs, students will paste the animal next to its habitat.

This hands-on activity helps reinforce students’ understanding about how habitats can meet the unique needs of an animal. This concept will lay the foundation for further discussions about how animals interact with their habitats and how ecosystems function. Learners will also sharpen their fine motor and critical thinking skills as they complete this worksheet.
