The Fascinating World of Insects and Animal Classification
How can you sort the sets of animals?
We can sort them into INSECT and NON INSECT but how else
could they be sorted into two groups?
On your white boards decide on other ways of sorting the
animals
Think about…
-
What do they have?
-
Where do they live?
-
What they can do?
REMEMBER YOUR METHOD OF CLASSIFYING THEM
HAS TO BE FACTUAL.
What would be wrong with: slithery and non slithery?

of
Animals
Scientists

Kingdom
into
two
main
groups
:
vertebrates
(
animals
with

backbone
)
invertebrates
(
animals

do give birth to
live young).
Have a moist skin
covered in scales.
Breathe through
gills.

That means insects are invertibrates
Discover the unique characteristics of insects such as their body parts, legs, compound eyes, antenna, and exoskeleton. Learn about the classification of animals into insects and non-insects, as well as vertebrates and invertebrates. Explore how animals can be sorted based on different criteria and dive into the categories of vertebrates like mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Delve into the world of animals and their diverse classifications.

Classification of Animals Scientists have divided the Animal Kingdom into two main groups: vertebrates (animals with a backbone) invertebrates (animals without a backbone) and
Vertebrates Animals with backbones can be divided into five more groups: Mammals Birds Reptiles Amphibians Fish
Invertebrates Animals without a backbone.
Vertebrates Animals with a backbone.
Mammals Give birth to live young. Feed their babies with their own milk. Are more or less covered with hair. Are warm-blooded.
Birds Have feathers. Lay eggs. Are warm-blooded.
Reptiles Are cold-blooded. Lay eggs. Have a dry skin covered with scales.
Amphibians Are cold-blooded. Lay eggs. Have a smooth, moist skin. Are able to live on land as well as in the water.
Fish Are cold-blooded. Lay eggs (but some do give birth to live young). Have a moist skin covered in scales. Breathe through gills.

Invertebrates Animals without backbones can be divided into five more groups: Arachnid- spiders, scorpions Insects Crustaceans- crabs Molluscs- snails, slugs, squid
