Living and non-living things for kids.
2
The world is full of living and non-living things.
3
How are these things alike?
4
How are they different?
5
Were all non-living things alive at some point in time?
6
There are so many questions,
7
and today we are going to answer them together.
8
When you think of something that is living, what comes to mind?
9
Animals, plants, or insects might have made your list because they are all alive.
10
And all living things have special traits or characteristics that set them apart from non-living things.
11
What do you think some of those might be?
12
Living things do three main things that non-living things cannot do.
13
Grow, take in nutrients, and reproduce.
14
Let's start with grow.
15
Have you ever seen a chick before?
16
What about a tiny plant sprout?
17
Do these things stay the same?
18
Or do they change over time?
19
That is right.
20
They change and get bigger.
21
They grow.
22
A chick becomes a hen,
23
and a sprout becomes a fully grown plant.
24
On to the next one.
25
What do you think taking in nutrients means?
26
Simply put, it means eating,
27
drinking, or absorbing all of the nutrients that an organism needs to survive.
28
What are nutrients?
29
They are what living things need in order to grow and thrive.
30
Stuff like food and water.
31
and sunlight if you are a plant.
32
Animals and plants take in nutrients in different ways,
33
and so do tiny organisms.
34
Here is an interesting fact.
35
Mold on cheese is a living thing because it actually feeds off of the cheese,
36
grows, and needs nutrients in order to live.
37
In this case, the cheese is the nutrient that the mold needs to survive.
38
Pretty neat, right?
39
Last, living things reproduce or make more of their own kind.
40
Non-living things cannot reproduce.
41
In addition to these three main characteristics,
42
most living things also breathe,
43
have senses, like sight, taste,
44
touch, sound, and smell, and they move too.
45
But there are some non-living things that also move, like fire and water.
46
Now that we have talked about living things,
47
let's turn our attention to non-living things.
48
Non-living things are not and have never been alive.
49
Which means that when something living dies,
50
it does not become non-living.
51
It is just dead.
52
As you can probably guess,
53
non-living things are pretty much the opposite of living things.
54
They do not grow, eat,
55
reproduce, breathe or have senses.
56
They do not need nutrients to survive.
57
Non-living objects can be in solid, liquid or gas form.
58
Take a car for example.
59
A car has never been alive.
60
It does not eat, grow, or reproduce.
61
And the only time it moves is if a person drives it.
62
Think you can spot the differences between something that is living and something that is non-living?
63
Let's find out.
64
Which one of these is non-living?
65
Did you say the stuffed animal?
66
You are right.
67
Okay, here are two plants.
68
Wait!
69
One of these plants grew from a seed and the other one is made of plastic.
70
Which one is living?
71
Did you say this one?
72
You are right!
73
Ready for one more?
74
We have a crystal and a rock.
75
Is one of these objects living?
76
Nope!
77
Both are non-living.
78
You are awesome!
79
Now that you are an expert on living and non-living things, let's review.
80
Fill in the blank.
81
Living things can grow, take in nutrients, and blank.
82
Did you say reproduce?
83
True or false?
84
False.
85
Once a living thing dies,
86
it becomes a non-living thing.
87
False.
88
Non-living things have never been alive.
89
Name a non-living thing that can move.
90
Fire, water, or a car.
91
True or false.
92
Non-living things can be solids, liquids, or gases.
93
That's true!
94
Great work, everybody!
95
Everywhere you go, there are living and non-living things.
96
Living things grow, take in nutrients, and reproduce.
97
Non-living things do not.
98
The next time you are playing with friends,
99
make up a game and guess which item is living and which is non-living,
100
kind of like we did today.
101
and always remember to have fun.
102
Hope you had fun learning with us.

このビデオでスピーキングを練習する理由
このビデオでは、生きているものと生きていないものについて学ぶことができます。英語を話す能力を伸ばすためには、身の回りの事象を観察し、それについて話すことが非常に重要です。このビデオは特に子供向けに作られているため、わかりやすい言葉と表現が使われており、英会話の練習に最適です。shadowspeakやshadow speakの技法を用いて、このビデオを使って反復的にスピーキング練習をすることで、自然な会話力を身につけることができます。また、内容が面白く、英語でのコミュニケーションを楽しむことができるでしょう。
文法 & 表現の背景
このビデオには、英語を学ぶ際に役立ついくつかの文法構造と表現があります。以下にキーポイントを挙げます。
- "What do you think..." – 意見を尋ねる際に使う一般的な表現です。話し手が聴衆の考えを引き出そうとしています。
- "Living things do three main things that non-living things cannot do." – 比較構文を使用して生きているものと生きていないものの違いを示しています。
- "Here is an interesting fact." – 新しい情報を導入する際に効果的な表現です。興味を持たせ、注意を引くためによく使われます。
- "What are nutrients?" – 質問形式で情報を提供するスタイルが響きます。聴衆が考えるきっかけを与えます。
これらの表現を使い、IELTS スピーキング対策として日常生活に取り入れることで、英語スピーキング能力を向上させることができます。
一般的な発音の罠
ビデオ内でのいくつかの発音で注意が必要な単語やフレーズがあります。
- "reproduce" – 特に「re」の部分が難しい場合があります。しっかりと「リ」で区切って発音することがポイントです。
- "nutrients" – 母音の音に注意しましょう。「nu」と「tri」の部分を明確に発音することが大切です。
- "alive" – 「a」の音がしっかり出ていないことがあるので注意が必要です。
英語の発音を良くするためには、これらの言葉を反復して練習することが有効です。shadow speakの手法を使って、同時に声に出して練習することで、発音とリズム感を改善できます。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
