In the 'Signals and Responses in Animal Families' word sort activity aligned with 1-LS1-2, students explore how young animals communicate their needs through signals and how parents respond to these signals to ensure survival. By sorting behaviors like crying, cheeping, grooming, and feeding, students uncover the important relationship between parent and offspring behaviors, fostering an understanding of how these patterns support survival.
