Fascinating Fact:

Tigers prowl in thick forests and jungles where their stripy fur works like magic camouflage against leaves and shadows.

In KS1 Science, you explore where well-known animals live and how their bodies suit those places. Learning about habitats helps you see how animals stay safe, find food, and raise their young.

  • Habitat: The natural home of an animal or plant, such as a jungle, ocean, woodland, or desert.
  • Camouflage: Colours or patterns that help an animal blend in so it is harder to see.
  • Adaptation: A feature that helps a living thing survive in its habitat, like thick fur or webbed feet.
What is a habitat in KS1 science?

In KS1 science, a habitat is the special place where an animal or plant lives and finds food, water, and shelter, such as a jungle, pond, farm, or garden.

How do animals adapt to their habitats?

Animals adapt by having features that help them survive. For example, tigers have stripy camouflage, polar bears have thick fur, and fish have gills to breathe underwater.

Why do different animals live in different habitats?

Different animals live in different habitats because each one needs the right temperature, food, and shelter. A habitat that suits one animal might not suit another.
