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 third 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 matching animal groups to the descriptions. 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 start by discussing what animals need to survive. Children will be taught the four basic things animals need to survive to help them understand how animal diets fit into the wider picture.

Children will discuss with a partner Zack ,a zookeepers, comment that all animals eat the same food. Children will be encouraged to develop reasoning skills using sentence stems to support oracy.

Children will be questioned whether they can remember the over 1.2 million animals and their different diets. This will lead into learning the importance of the three main food groups.

Children will be taught about carnivores, omnivores and herbivores. Children will reflect on how this applies to their own diets. Children will look at several animals including humans and will identify what type of diet they have.

Children will then complete a similar activity independently.

Helping hands is provided for children who need additional support as well as a chilli challenge to broaden children’s understanding. .
