This activity is designed to help your students not only learn examples of adaptations, but to learn how they help with survival.

Students will match an "adaptation" card to a "reason" card to demonstrate their understanding of how a particular adaptation helps that organism to survive in its particular environment. Extension ideas and instructions are provided in teacher notes.

There are twenty matches, so forty cards total.

Matches appear in the correct order as is.

Cut and shuffle prior to beginning activity.

Makes a great group activity!
