Animals live in different places. Like the

fishes live under the sea or in water, and
the dog live on the land.

A place where they live is called

There are 3 types of habitat.

1. Land

2. Water

3. Air

These are the places where animals

can live happily and peaceful together
with other animals.

So I have here a mini-activity wherein you

will paste the animals based on their
habitat. Six (6) students are expected to
participate in the activity.
I need six (6) volunteers to participate in our
activity and they will be given a prize.
