Delve deep into ecosystems by classifying the beings that live there. Our resource breaks down the different kinds of animals before studying their different adaptations. Start off by answering the question: what do we classify? Then, break down this classification into kingdom, phylum, class, family, genus, and finally species. Compare the differences between warm-blooded and cold-blooded animals. Create a brochure on your favorite vertebrate before inventing your own invertebrate. Introduce the concept of adaptation and how animals have changed based on their environment. Take this further by conducting a case study on the adaptations of the koala. Finally, explore the concept of evolution and how this idea is backed up by fossil records. Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional hands-on experiments, crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.

Our comprehensive, four-part study of animals is sure to captivate student interest. Our unit starts off with a knowledge-based presentation of twenty-six terms necessary for a proper understanding of animals. Then, students learn the important characteristics of the major vertebrate families (groups) — fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals. Next, students investigate some of the ways that animals have adapted to suit their environments. Finally, students complete a major project where they write a report on an animal. This Animal Science lesson provides a teacher and student section with a variety of reading passages, activities, crossword, word search, colouring book and answer key to create a well-rounded lesson plan.

Explore your environment with our Life Science 3-book BUNDLE. Students begin by studying the different kinds of Ecosystems. See how food chains work by creating your own food web. Look through a microscope at the tiny world of microorganisms. Next, delve deep into ecosystems with Classification & Adaptation. Classify animals by their kingdom all the way down to their species. Then, do a case study on the adaptations of the koala. Finally, take a look at the building blocks of life with Cells. Compare single-celled and multicellular organisms. Look at the big picture by seeing how cells become organisms. Each concept is paired with hands-on activities and experiments. Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards and written to Bloom's Taxonomy and STEAM initiatives, additional crossword, word search, comprehension quiz and answer key are also included.
