A teacher gets a finished energy, food and skeleton unit here, so no extra prep stands between the lesson and the class. The text explains where living things get their energy and how much food counts as enough for one day. A side by side look at the human skeleton against other animal skeletons leads into a short closing part on how different animals get around. A free companion video from Brenda Hayles plays alongside each of the six sections, reached through a link on the contents page. Color photos of live animals pair with a labeled skeleton drawing across all 21 pages, and new words including nutrients and vertebrate get explained on the final page. NGSS codes 4-LS1-1 and 5-LS2-1 are covered.
Inside:
- Six short sections, from energy use to animal movement
- A linked video for each section
- Color animal photos next to a skeleton drawing
- A glossary covering nutrients and vertebrate
