Basic Needs of Humans and Animals



I would intergate this concept map into a second grade Science class. I would start by having the students outline 5 basic needs of humans and animals (food, water, oxygen, shelter and space) with examples of each. Using humans and 2 examples of local animals (owls and rabbits in this case), we would explore their specific needs while remembering that they branch out from the same 5 major needs. This concept map will help the students organize the material in a way that makes sense, and they will also recognize that humans and animals share the same basic needs.
The ICT outcome that corresponds with this lesson is:
C5 Students will use technology to aid collaboration during inquiry.
