Explore the wonderful world of animal adaptations with this insect-focused PowerPoint presentation. This KS2 science resource helps pupils identify the adaptations of insects from different habitats across the world. The insect examples feature some less familiar bugs including the atlas moth, hissing cockroach, thorn bug, and stag beetle.
The presentation
The presentation is full of real photographs and fun facts that are sure to engage your students. For each insect, students first look at a photograph and discuss its features. They are then given more information about how it is adapted to its habitat and lifestyle.
The activity
At the end of the presentation, pupils are set the challenge of designing their own insect for a named habitat, outlining its adaptations to survive there.
Is it editable?

This resource links to the upper KS2 science curriculum where pupils should ‘identify how animals and plants are adapted to suit their environment in different
ways’.
