This Grade 2 science worksheet connects landforms to the plants and animals that live in them. Students complete fill-in-the-blank sentences and a matching activity to link deserts with cacti, forests with deer, mountains with goats, and oceans with fish. Children learn that each landform gives plants and animals what they need to survive, building early understanding of habitats and ecosystems in fun, kid-friendly language.
