Here is a fun outline about Living and Non-Living Things!

1. Living Things

• Living things are alive.
• They need food, water, and air to survive.
• They can grow bigger over time.
• They can move, even if slowly.
• They can have babies or make more of their kind.
• Examples: Humans, animals, birds, plants, fish, insects.

2. Non-Living Things

• Non-living things are not alive.
• They do not need food, water, or air.
• They do not grow or change on their own.
• They cannot move by themselves.
• They cannot reproduce.
• Examples: Rocks, toys, chairs, bags, cars, pencils.

3. How to Tell the Difference

• Ask: “Does it need food or water?”
• Ask: “Can it grow?”
• Ask: “Can it move by itself?”
• Ask: “Can it have babies?”
• If the answer is yes, it is a living thing.
• If the answer is no, it is a non-living thing.
