About this printable

This printable is a one-page reference poster that defines adaptation, contrasts structural and behavioural adaptations, and uses a colour-coded table of animal examples (polar bear, camel, platypus, fennec fox, penguin) showing habitat, the adaptation, and how it helps. It also includes a 'Why adaptations matter' list and a five-step 'Think Like a Scientist' prompt to encourage inquiry. Use it as a visual scaffold during a unit on habitats and adaptation or as a student-facing reference during investigations.
