How Seeds Travel

A seed cannot grow in its parent's shadow. There is not enough light. So seeds have to move away. Some seeds have wings. A sycamore seed spins like a tiny helicopter and lands far from the tree. Some seeds hook onto fur. A burr catches on a passing fox and drops off somewhere new. Some seeds sit inside fruit. A bird eats the fruit and the seed comes out later, miles away.

  1. 1. How does the title tell you what the text is about?
  2. 2. What would a diagram for this text need to show?

Bats

Bats are the only mammals that can fly. Their wings are made of thin skin stretched between long finger bones. Most bats come out at night. They find their way by making high squeaks. The squeaks bounce off things and come back. The bat listens to the echo and knows what is ahead. Many bats eat insects. One small bat can eat a thousand insects in a night.

  1. 1. What would a diagram of a bat need to label?
  2. 2. The title is "Bats". How does that help a reader?
