We've been talking about how plants and animals have adapted to survive in their habitats. For this blog reply, I'd like you to use your imagination to write a short descriptive paragraph (5-8 sentences) from the point of view of an animal or plant.
Your paragraph should include enough detail to describe the trait, explain how the trait is used, and how the adaptation helps you to survive. Remember, this is a story, so I want you to be informative, but also creative.
Read the excerpts below to help you get off on the right foot:
Hi! My name is Fern, and I live in the forest. I spend my days shading the small insects that like to hide under my long, slender leaves...
Whew, am I tired! I've been gliding on the thermals most of the day, looking for something to eat. Even though I didn't have to move my wings very much, it takes a lot of control to keep them extended to their full length of more than six feet.
Make sure you include your initials.

Grrr! I'm a leopard and my spots camoflage me in trees so I can jump down on my unexpecting prey. Its fun to watch try to run. Wow, are those animals startled! I tol you earlier that I'm camoflaged in trees, right? Well, that also helps me to not have to fight for my food after I kill it. I just bring it into a tree and there! Peace and quiet to eat my prey. I'm getting tired now. I think i'll take a little nap now. Good night!

Quack, quack! I'm a duck, and my feathers are waterproof so my skin dosen't get as wet. It helps me to swim around as much as I want. That's the fun part! That's one of the reasons I swim as much as I do.

I'm a bear and have huge claws. I ues those claws on my paws for when I go to the river when I am hungry. I put my paws in the water, then catch a fish for my food and live close to a river so I can always get my food. $**MLG**$
A bear has claws to help catch food.They will eat anything, but they won't eat a house. It helps a berry bush by eating all of the old berrys and the bush can grow new berrys.

I am a Polar bear. My thick blubber helps me survive when there are bad snowstorms. My sharp teeth help me rip into my prey. They also help me defend myself from other preadetors. I can also defend my food from other animals with my sharp teeth. My white coat helps me camouflage my babies if a predator is trying to eat them.

My cat CinCin uses her claws to kill her prey that she likes to eat and attack.She attacks baby bunnies,birds,chipmunks,squirrels,moles,and rats.and those are her adaptations! MM
Hi, I am a apple tree. Many animals like to eat my apples. Like birds. They fly on my branches and grab an apple. They eat the apple. Then when they go to the bathroom the seeds are left behind and they make more of me. That's good because that makes oxygen for people and animals.
