Vertebrates And Invertebrates
Seventh graders brainstorm to find the meaning to the terms vertebrate and invertebrate. They use ideas in order to progress to the investigation. They feel their own backbones in order to bring context to the lesson. Students answer...
Curated OER
Animal Classification
Second graders identify characteristics of and group animals by the five categories of vertebrates.
Curated OER
Vertebrate Dioramas
Learners describe the development of their chosen form of vertebrate life from the past to the present in a four to six page paper. They explain the use of a phylogenetic tree, and use this to exemplify an organism's evolutionary change...
Curated OER
Vertebrate/Invertebrate Venn Diagram
Learners research the characteristics of Vertebrates and Invertebrates. They identify and explain those characteristics. Students create a Venn Diagram comparing/contrasting those characteristics.
Curated OER
Through the Eyes of an Owl
Students describe vertebrates in terms of observable body parts and characteristics and describe life cycles of familiar organisms. They identify familiar organisms as part of a food chain or food web and describe their feeding...
Curated OER
Animal Classification
Third graders differentiate between vertebrates and invertebrates, and identify the main characteristics of mammals, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and birds. They sort and categorize different types of balls, discuss the characteristics...
