Hello! How are you today?
Let’s dive into the world of fish! Fish are special animals that live in water. They can be found in both fresh water, like lakes and rivers, and salt water, like the ocean. Fish are born from eggs, which makes them oviparous. They have fins to help them swim and a tail that helps them move easily through the water.
Fish have bodies covered in scales, which protect them. They breathe using gills, which are special organs that let them take in oxygen from the water. Fish are cold-blooded, meaning their body temperature changes with the temperature of the water around them. They also have a simpler skeleton compared to other animals with backbones, like mammals and birds.
Did you know that some fish, like salmon and eels, go on amazing journeys? They travel from salty ocean waters to fresh rivers and streams. Imagine swimming such a long way!
Now that you know a bit about fish, can you think of five different kinds of fish? Write them down and see if you can come up with some that weren’t mentioned here!
Thanks for learning about fish with me today. Keep exploring and discovering new things about the amazing animals in our world!
Fish Observation Adventure: Next time you visit an aquarium or a pet store, take a notebook with you. Observe the different types of fish you see. Note down their colors, sizes, and any unique features like the shape of their fins or tails. Try to spot fish with different patterns on their scales. Draw a picture of your favorite fish and share it with your class!
Create Your Own Fish Habitat: Using a shoebox or a small container, create a fish habitat. Use colored paper, clay, or other craft materials to make plants, rocks, and fish. Think about what a fish needs to live and include those elements in your habitat. Share your creation with your family and explain why each part is important for the fish.
Fishy Questions: Discuss with a family member or a friend: Why do you think some fish travel from the ocean to rivers? How do you think fish know where to go? Imagine you are a fish going on a journey. What would you see and feel? Write a short story about your adventure as a fish!

Hello! How are you?
Today, I am going to talk to you about a group of vertebrate animals: fish. Fish are aquatic animals that can live in fresh water or salt water. They are oviparous, meaning they are born from eggs. They have fins to move around in the water and a tail at the end of their bodies, which helps them swim easily.
As you can see, their bodies are covered in scales. Because they are aquatic animals, they breathe through their gills. They are cold-blooded, which means their body temperature varies depending on the water. Additionally, they have a simpler skeleton than other vertebrates.
Did you know that there are fish, like salmon and eel, that travel all the way from areas of salt water to areas of fresh water? What a trip!
And that is all about fish. Oh, I think I’ve got something! See you later!
Could you name five fish that we didn’t see in the video? Write them in the comment section. Will you get it right? Oh, and subscribe to the channel to stay up to date on new adventures!
