Homework Alert! Characteristics of Living Things Picture File

§Use pictures (from magazines, printed, drawn, etc.) to create a mini-poster that shows 1 living and 1 nonliving thing. 
§Beneath or beside each picture, explain the characteristics that identify why that picture is a living thing or a non-living thing.

§Name in top right corner


example:     
                                      Fox - Living Thing
   A fox is a living thing  because it has lots of cells, reproduces baby foxes, responds to its environment by running away from predators, and it uses energy from the food it eats.


Due Monday!  This should not take much time, as the students have notes about the characteristics of living things in their notebooks in which to refer, and they began the assignment in class today.
