Introduction
Animals are amazing creatures that have adapted to survive in different environments. Some animals can even survive in extreme temperatures! In this lesson, we will learn about how animals survive in both hot and cold environments.

Slide 4 - Diapositive

Introduce the topic and create interest by highlighting the amazing adaptations of animals.
Hot Environments
Animals that live in hot environments have special adaptations to help them survive. For example, camels have long eyelashes and nostrils that can close to keep out sand and dust. They can also go for long periods of time without water.

Slide 5 - Diapositive

Explain how animals adapt to hot environments and provide examples.
Interactive Element
Let's test our knowledge with a quick quiz! Which animal can go without water for long periods of time in a hot environment?
