K,1,2,3,4 K-4.1.1a Animals need air, water, and food in order to live and thrive.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.1.1b Plants require air, water, nutrients, and light in order to live and thrive.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.1.1c Nonliving things do not live and thrive.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.1.1d Nonliving things can be human-created or naturally occurring.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.3.1a Each animal has different structures that serve different functions in growth, survival, and reproduction.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.3.1a (i) wings, legs, or fins enable some animals to seek shelter and escape predators
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.3.1a (iii) eyes, nose, ears, tongue, and skin of some animals enable the animals to sense their surroundings
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.3.1b Each plant has different structures that serve different functions in growth, survival, and reproduction.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.3.1c In order to survive in their environment, plants and animals must be adapted to that environment.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.3.1c (ii) leaf, flower, stem, and root adaptations may include variations in size, shape, thickness, color, smell, and texture
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.3.1c (iii) animal adaptations include coloration for warning or attraction, camouflage, defense mechanisms, movement, hibernation, and migration
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.4.2b Food supplies the energy and materials necessary for growth and repair.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.5.1a All living things grow, take in nutrients, breathe, reproduce, and eliminate waste.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.5.1b An organismês external physical features can enable it to carry out life functions in its particular environment.
K,1,2,3,4 K-4.5.2b Animals respond to change in their environment, (e.g., perspiration, heart rate, breathing rate, eye blinking, shivering, and salivating).

K,1,2,3,4 K-4.6.1e An organismês pattern of behavior is related to the nature of that organismês environment, including the kinds and numbers of other organisms present, the availability of food and other resources, and the physical characteristics of the environment.
