Body coverings
Your skin keeps germs out of your body so you need to look after it.
Animals have different coverings that they need to keep clean, too.
Choose five very different animals (such as a sparrow, mouse, lizard,
elephant and monkey) and investigate:
a) what kind of covering they have. For example, humans have skin,
cats have fur
b) how they keep clean.
Record your results in the table below. The first one is done as an
example.

My teeth
Each jaw (top and bottom) contains 16 teeth:
Four incisors: these are straight-edged teeth for cutting or gnawing
Two canines: these are pointed teeth for tearing food
Four premolars: these are for grinding food. They are between the
molars and canines
Six molars: these are also for grinding food. They are bigger than the
molars and are at the back of the jaw
Read the text above carefully.
Write in labels for each of the teeth below.
