Information
Description
What It Is:
This science worksheet is designed to help students distinguish between living and non-living things. It features three sections with illustrations of a computer monitor, a laptop, and a green t-shirt. For each item, students evaluate four core biological questions about growth, reproduction, and nutrition by circling smiley or frowny face icons.
Why Use It:
This activity supports critical thinking and foundational biology skills. It encourages students to apply specific scientific criteria to everyday objects, reinforcing their understanding of what constitutes life while practicing observation and classification.
How to Use It:
• Examine the object illustrated in the box on the right side of the section.
• Read each of the four questions aloud to determine if the object can grow, reproduce, eat, or drink.
• Circle the smiley face icon for 'yes' or the frowny face icon for 'no' for every question.
• Discuss why these objects are classified as non-living based on the results.
Grade Suitability:
Best for Kindergarten and Grade 1.
• Younger kids focus area: Recognizing common objects and understanding basic needs like food and water.
• Older students focus area: Applying scientific classification criteria and distinguishing between man-made objects and biological organisms.
Target Users:
