Thank you for looking at my resource.

This resource includes a fully comprehensive powerpoint ,worksheets/resources catering to a wide range of abilities, preparation list and a lesson plan.

This is the second lesson in a sequence. The lesson can be taught independently without the need for the previous lessons or the future lessons. This lesson can be picked up and taught straight from however is fully editable.

In this lesson children will recap on their prior knowledge by playing I spy with a picture of animals at the zoo. Children will then identify the differences between two matching pictures… This will encourage children to recall animal names and groups. This will ensure that prior learning is at the forefront of children’s minds to help them make connections with their new learning and support their understanding.

Children will then recap the five different animal groups before moving onto this. lessons learning.

Children will be working with Zack, a zookeeper, who will think that all amphibians are the same. Using whole class investigation children will identify what is the same and what is different.

This will lead to children independently comparing similarities and differences between animal groups

Helping hands is provided for children who need additional support as well as a chilli challenge.

Once children have made their independent/supported comparisons, they will learn a definition of each of the animal groups. Children will match these at the end of the lesson.
