Grade 2 learners carefully think about what happens when animal and plant habitats change quickly in this science worksheet. Four multiple choice questions cover real events like forest fires, long droughts, melting Arctic sea ice, and new roads cut through forests. Five fill in the blank sentences then add key vocabulary like habitat, drought, and move, helping young students understand why protecting habitats keeps animals and plants safe for the future.
