What children learn in Level 42
- Welcome to Alive or Not? Living things are alive. Dogs, trees, and you are living things!
- Living things grow. A puppy grows into a dog. A little plant grows into a big one.
- Living things need water and air. Animals need food. Plants need sunlight to make their own food.
- Living things make more of their kind. A cat has kittens. A sunflower makes seeds that grow into new sunflowers.
- Try it with a grown-up! Find a living thing outside. What does it need?
