About this worksheet
Ranger Maya's notebook from the school nature garden is the setting for this Year 2 science sorting sheet. Pupils sort the 12 things she spotted into three columns: living, dead and never been alive. The list mixes clear cases, such as a robin and a pebble, with harder ones like a fallen autumn leaf, a roasted peanut and a toy robot. Page 2 asks which item was the trickiest, then wants one new example per column from the classroom. It is matched to the England National Curriculum, and the answer page explains each boundary item.
