Circle the things animals need to live and cross out the things they don't need.

Let’s think about what animals need to live.

Animals are living things, just like us. To stay alive, they need:

✔ Food – to give them energy
✔ Water – to drink and stay healthy
✔ Shelter – a safe place to sleep or hide from danger

Now let’s look at each item in the task:

1. Food (like meat, eggs, nuts) → Animals need this! ✔ Circle it.
2. Books → Books are for people to read. Animals don’t read. ✘ Cross it out.
3. Water (splash of water) → Animals need to drink water. ✔ Circle it.
4. Boat → Boats are for humans to travel on water. Animals don’t use boats. ✘ Cross it out.
5. Doghouse with dog sleeping → This is shelter! Animals need a safe place to rest. ✔ Circle it.
6. Hat → Hats are for people to wear. Animals don’t wear hats. ✘ Cross it out.
7. Banana → Some animals eat fruit like bananas. So yes, food! ✔ Circle it.
8. Leaf → Many animals eat leaves (like deer or rabbits). Also food! ✔ Circle it.
9. Battery → Batteries power toys or gadgets. Animals don’t use batteries. ✘ Cross it out.

So we circle: food, water, shelter (doghouse), banana, leaf
We cross out: books, boat, hat, battery

Final Answer:
Circle: food pile, water splash, doghouse, banana, leaf
Cross out: stack of books, boat, hat, battery
