 * 1) Introduce the topic "Living Things" through the video on the Introduction page. That should allow students to become familiar with what they will be learning about in the lessons.
 * 2) The first living thing to be introduced is "Animals." Websites are available for students to access, research and take notes from. The worksheet provided should be printed out prior to the lesson for students to record their information. Afterwards, each group reads out and presents their animal topic to the rest of the class.
 * 3) This is followed by an online quiz that students can access.
 * 4) The second lesson will be about plants and trees. Websites are linked to the students to gather information from. They are then to complete a table on plants, in regards to their survival needs. Students compare this data with that of their animal information. This is followed by an online quiz.
 * 5) The last lesson will focus on humans. Students begin the lesson accessing a website with different types of activities, information and quizzes.
 * 6) Students are then asked to fill out a table, comparing plants and humans, to see the differences and similarities.
 * 7) Lastly, students are three questions about all three living things, what they have in common and differences.
