Plant and Animal Structures Task Cards

Plant and Animal Structures Task Cards are a no-prep, fun way to review the physical structures that help plants and animals obtain energy, create offspring, and survive in their unique environments.

Plant and Animal Structures Task Cards includes 28 task cards, a student response worksheet, and an answer key. Questions are multiple choice, multiple select, fill-in-the-blank, and labeling a model.

What will students review with these task cards?

With these Plant and Animal Structures Task Cards, students will review:

• The parts of a plant and how those parts play a role in plant reproduction and survival
• How plants reproduce through pollination
• How plants make food through photosynthesis
• How the survival of humans, animals, and plants depends on photosynthesis
• How animals obtain energy by consuming other organisms
• Animal adaptations that aid in producing offspring, avoiding predators, and surviving in their unique environment

What standards are covered?

These Plant and Animal Structures Task Cards are specifically aligned with the Virginia Science SOL 4.2, although they closely match most science standards related to the physical structures that help plants and animals obtain energy, create offspring, and survive in their unique environments.

This unit has been updated to align with the 2018 Science SOLs AND the 2025 Science Instructional Guides.

Is a digital version included?

These Plant and Animal Structures Task Cards resource includes BOTH a digital version and a PDF version. The digital version can be accessed through Google Forms and allows students to easily self-check their work. You can also use the Google Forms task cards to track student progress.

When you purchase this product, you will be given access to a link that will allow you to open the file in Google Forms. You’ll then share that file with your students.

What if I want to create my own science task cards?

Four blank task cards are included so that you can create additional questions, if needed. For these task cards, you will print the blank cards and write your questions directly on the cards.
