CASE OF STUDY The student is 9 years old. The student attends 4th grade. The student has been diagnosed as Asperger´s Syndrome

OBJECTIVES The student HAS to… … identify the life stages of animals. … differ vertebrate from invertebrate animals. … name herbivore, carnivore and omnivore animals. … differ from viviparous from oviparous animals. - … identify some insects. … distinguish between producers and consumers.

CONTENTS The life stages of animals. Vertebrate and invertebrate animals. Animals according to what they eat: herbivore, carnivore and omnivore. Animals according to how they are born: viviparous and oviparous. The food chain: producers and consumers.

ASSESSMENT CRITERIA The student CAN… … match the life stages of animals. … differ vertebrate from invertebrate animals. … match pictures with herbivore, carnivore and omnivore animals. … identify viviparous from oviparous animals. … name some insects. -… distinguish between producers and consumers.

1. ANIMAL KINGDOM Animals are living things because they… …are born , …grow , … reproduce , … and die .

1. ANIMAL KINGDOM Animals CAN move around to look for their food. Animals CAN´T make their own food.

2. VERTEBRATES All vertebrates have a backbone. They do 3 things: Nutrition Respiration Reproduction

2. VERTEBRATES. NUTRITION: All animals need to eat. Carnivore animals eat other animals.

2. VERTEBRATES. NUTRITION: All animals need to eat. Herbivore animals eat plants.

2. VERTEBRATES. NUTRITION: All animals need to eat. Omnivore animals eat both animals and plants.

2. VERTEBRATES: Nutrition. Video Game

2. VERTEBRATES. RESPIRATION: All animals need to breathe in oxygen. Mammals… Birds… Reptiles… …breathe with their lungs.

2. VERTEBRATES. RESPIRATION: All animals need to breathe in oxygen. …breathe with their gills. Fish…

2. VERTEBRATES: Respiration. Video

2. VERTEBRATES. REPRODUCTION: All animals have babies. Viviparous animals are born directly from their mother. Mammal mothers produce milk for their babies.

2. VERTEBRATES. REPRODUCTION: All animals have babies. Oviparous animals lay eggs.

2. VERTEBRATES: Reproduction. Video Game

3. INVERTEBRATES. 97% of all animals are INVERTEBRATES. They do NOT have backbone.

3. INVERTEBRATES. MOLLUSCS They have a soft body often protected by a shell .

3. INVERTEBRATES. JELLYFISH They have a soft body called umbrella. They have tentacles

3. INVERTEBRATES. ARTHROPODS They have a protective exoskeleton. They have head, thorax, abdomen and jointed legs

3. INVERTEBRATES. ARTHROPODS Insects are arthropods. Insects have six legs. Insects have two antennae.

3. INVERTEBRATES Game Videos

4. FOOD CHAIN Animals and plants need each others. Plants make and produce their own food. They are producers. Animals eat and consume other plants and animals. They are consumers.

4. FOOD CHAIN Video Game

ACTIVITY 1 Circle the vertebrate animals.

ACTIVITY 2 Match. Carnivore Herbivore Omnivore

ACTIVITY 3 Number in the food chain.

ACTIVITY 4 Circle the insects.
