Part A has nine fill in the blank sentences covering warm blooded mammals, cold blooded reptiles sitting in the sun, and how eagles use wings to fly. Part B is a matching activity where children draw lines from four animals, a bear, penguin, gecko, and trout, to their correct group: bird, fish, mammal, or reptile.
