Vocabulary:Mammals, fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, omnivore, herbivore, carnivore. |
This term, we will be exploring a range of animals and there will be a big focus on identifying and classifying them. One way we can classify is by putting the animals into five groups: mammals, fish, birds, reptiles and amphibians. We will also classify animals by the different diets animals eat. Here, we use the labels ‘carnivore’, ‘omnivore’ and ‘herbivore’. After classifying the animals in a variety of ways, we will then describe and compare the structure of animals. For example, comparing a robin and a penguin. A robin has a short body and beak whereas a penguin has a long body and beak.
We played a game where we were given a name of an animal and we had to find the photo to match.
We researched which animals are herbivores, carnivores and omnivores.
We sorted animals into the type of animal and their diet
