     Read the passage and write 3 things you LEARNED.
A bird is an animal with feathers and wings.
Most birds can fly. Birds have two legs. They can
walk, run, or hop. All birds have a backbone. It is
also called a spine. Birds have many hollow
bones. Hollow bones have empty space inside.
They make a bird’s body lighter. That helps birds
fly. Birds are warm-blooded. They make their
own body heat. Birds lay eggs. The shells are
hard. Birds keep the eggs warm. How? They sit
on them until the eggs hatch! Then the bird
takes care of its chicks.

     A Shell is Great for Protection
                                     All turtles have shells. Most
                                     turtles have hard shells. Hard
                                     shells protect turtles. A predator
                                     cannot bite the hard shell. Some
                                     turtles can pull their legs inside
                                     their shells. They can pull in
                                     their heads and tails too.
 Shells come in many different shapes. Some shells are tall and
 round. Other shells are flat. Sometimes cartoons show turtles
 leaving their shells. But... that cannot really happen! A turtle
 cannot leave its shell. The shell is attached to the turtle. It is a
 permanent part of its body.
1. What do ALL turtles have?

2. How does this passage describe turtle shells?

3. How does a turtles shell protect it from predators?

4. What did you learn from "A Shell is Great for Protection"?

Our planet is Earth. Water covers most of our
planet. Almost all of that water is salt water. Salt
water is very salty. People, animals, and plants
need fresh water to live. Fresh water is not
salty. Earth does not have as much fresh water
as salt water. People should remember to use
fresh water carefully. They should never waste
it. Where is Earth’s fresh water? Fresh water is
found in rivers, lakes, and streams. It can also be
found under the ground. Machines pump the
water to the surface for people to use.

               Animals of the Arctic
                                     The Arctic is a snowy place.
                                     Come meet some animals that
                                     live in this icy habitat. Polar bears
                                     live in the Arctic. These big white
                                     animals live mostly on land. They
                                     also spend time in the cold Arctic
                                     Ocean. Polar bears look for food
                                     in holes in the ocean ice.
 They like to eat seals and walruses. The white snowy owl flies in
 the Arctic. In the daytime, it hunts for food. The snowy owl can
 eat some small animals whole. Seals swim in the Arctic Ocean.
 They catch fish to eat. They like to slide on the ice, too!

1. What is the weather like in the Arctic?

2. This text gives us information about animals that live in the Arctic. What
   are some of the animals that live in the Arctic?

3. What did you learn from "Animals of the Arctic"?
