Who this list is for
Young students searching patterned habitats will use this animal camouflage game supply list. It explores how hidden animals can blend into forest, desert, snow, and ocean backgrounds without using live animals.
How to use this list
Prepare camouflaged animal picture cards by mounting them on cardstock backing sheets and covering them with clear contact paper if you want reusable cards. Place forest, desert, snow, and ocean habitat background sheets at stations. Students use stopwatches for timed searches, then record found animals on seek-and-find score sheets with pencils and clipboards.
Common mistakes
Do not place every animal card in an obvious spot or use only one habitat type. Keep cards flat against the background rather than tucked into classroom objects where they may be lost. Let students search each habitat before revealing card locations.
What is on this list
The list includes 24 camouflaged animal picture cards, six background sheets for each habitat, cardstock, contact paper, scissors, glue sticks, four stopwatches, score sheets, clipboards, and pencils. Cross off laminating or classroom tools you already own.
Before you go
Prepare and dry any glued or contact-paper cards before students arrive. Divide backgrounds among stations so groups have room to search. Check that each student has a score sheet and that shared clipboards are ready.
