living things and non-living
things.
 record the groups in the
form of a table.
 State the characteristics of
living things i.e.:
- they need food and
water
- they breathe
- they can move
- they grow
- they can produce
young
 recognize humans, animals
ands plants as living things.
Suggested Learning Activities Scientific Skills Remarks
Pupils walk around the school Observing
compound and list the things that Classifying
they see. Communicating
Making inferences
Pupils group them into living things
and non-living things.
Observing
Pupils give reasons why they say Communicating
something is a living thing e.g it
needs food and water, it breathes, it
moves, it grows and it can produce
young.
Pupils look at the grouping that they
did earlier. Pupils redo their grouping
based on the characteristics of living
things.
