About this worksheet

3rd Grade How Texas Animals Survive Worksheet

How does a jackrabbit stay cool in the Texas heat? This worksheet uses animals students may see in Texas to show structures at work: a horned lizard's spines make it hard to eat, a jackrabbit's big ears let heat out, a roadrunner's long legs help it chase food, and an armadillo's shell keeps it safe. Students sort each structure by its job, then pick the best reason in two real scenarios.

Key Science Vocabulary

survive, structure, spines, protection, habitat, predator

What's Inside

  • Teach box with horned lizard and jackrabbit doodles
  • Part A: label four structures P (stay safe), C (stay cool), or F (catch food)
  • Part B: circle the best reason in two Texas scenarios
  • Answer key and teacher note

Standards

TEKS 3.13A: explain how external structures of animals enable them to survive in their environment.

Teaching Tip

Show a photo of the Texas state reptile, the horned lizard, and ask students to list everything about its body that would make a coyote think twice.
