A snail
is small animal with a soft body and a spiral shell. Many kinds
of snails live on land, in fresh water, or in the ocean. They
move slowly using their wide, strong foot. Snails are mollusks.
Many species of snails are endangered.
Snails are creatures that use their shells as a home.
- They also use their shells as protection from other creatures.
- Snail may live on land, fresh water (the pond) or the ocean.
- Some of these shells wash up on the sea shore and are collected by people.

- The sea snail eats small plants in the sea (algae) and decaying matter.
- Ask the children if they have seen a snail before? Did they touch it? How did it feel? Was it slimy?
