Before you begin
Read or listen to the model and identify what the task asks before responding.
How to use this worksheet
- Which example is living?
- Say one detail that supports the living classification.
- A toy rolls when pushed. Does that make it living? Why?
A common mistake to discuss
No. Motion can result from a push and is not sufficient evidence of life.
What to practice next
Create a different example that preserves the learning goal, and explain how you would check it.
