Classification picture cards
I cut out the kingdom labels and ds put them on the floor in the order they go. He then looked at the pages of animal cards and classified them into the proper phylum, etc.

Vertebrates:
Learn all about vertebrates and how to classify them with these printables, worksheets and a card game! This was a very useful printable that really helped ds understand simple classification of vertebrates.

 

Extra Ideas

 

Glow in the Dark Fish:
Go outside and draw pictures of flowers into your nature notebook. Collect pollen and look at it under the microscope.

Animal Habitats:
After reading about the prairie plants, guess what they look like based on their name and draw the guesses into your nature notebook. After drawing your guesses, paste in pictures of how the plant really looks next to your drawings for comparison.
