Animal Classification Unit: Vertebrates Invertebrate, cold-blooded, warm-blooded

What others say

"As we were studying classification in science, I realized my students didn't have prior knowledge on classification and I needed to back up a bit. This resource was very helpful! I love that there is a short but to the point Powerpoint and then plenty of activities. "

"This is my second year using this resource, and I love it. The students use the reading passages to learn and help them review. This is one of the most useful resources I use all year. Thank you!"

I used this in my class as a way to review the vertebrates with the students. It was a great way to engage them and get through the classes of vertebrates quickly. I would like more detail on the invertebrates, but it was great for what I needed.

I can't say enough good things about this resource. My son is crazy about animals and animal facts and we absolutely LOVED using this in homeschool. It helped him gain confidence in writing. The activities and worksheets are equally awesome. Thanks!
