A characteristic, a trait so unique
Makes every creature, a special treat
Diversity all around, it's quite clear
Every species, so different, yet so near

Habitats, a home for each one
From the forest to the sun
A place to live and play and grow
And with their families, they come and go

The genes, they hold the code just right
Of all the traits, that make each bright
With DNA as the key to unlock
The secrets of life, it's never a mock

So let's celebrate this world so grand
And all its creatures, on land and in sand
For every species, big and small
Are unique in their own way, that's what makes them all.

Reflections

1. What makes each species unique and special?
2. How does DNA help to create different traits and characteristics?
3. Why is diversity important in nature?
4. Can you think of an example of a species and its habitat?
5. What can we do to help protect the diversity of species and their habitats?
