1. Learning outcomes By the end of today you will:  Bronze: List (L3)  Silver: Describe (L4)  Gold: Explain (L5) Invertebrates

2.  Can you remember what a vertebrate is?  Can you list a few examples. Extension  What do you think an invertebrate is?

3. We can classify animals into two main groups: vertebratesinvertebrates Have a backbone Do not have a backbone

4. We are going to use the x-ray machine to see if some animals are vertebrates or invertebrates Vertebrates are animals that have: A BACKBONE NO BACKBONE

5. Our first animal is a cat. Do you think a cat is a vertebrate? Click on the cat to x-ray it!

6. What about this fish? Do you think a fish is a vertebrate? Click on the fish to x-ray it!

11. What about this worm? Do you think a worm is a vertebrate? Click on the worm to x-ray it!

12. What about this frog? Do you think a frog is a vertebrate? Click on the frog to x-ray it!

13. What about this person? Do you think a human is a vertebrate? Click on the person to x-ray them!

14. Yes, a cat has a backbone, so it is a vertebrate Click here to carry on

15. Yes, a fish has a backbone, so it is a vertebrate Click here to carry on

16. No, a snail has no backbone, so it is an in vertebrate Click here to carry on

17. Yes, this dinosaur had a backbone, so it was a vertebrate Click here to carry on

18. No, a jellyfish has no backbone, so it is an in vertebrate Click here to carry on

19. Yes, an eagle has a backbone, so it is a vertebrate Click here to carry on

20. No, a worm has no backbone, so it is an in vertebrate Click here to carry on

21. Yes, a frog has a backbone, so it is a vertebrate Click here to carry on

22. Yes, a human has a backbone, so it is a vertebrate Click here to carry on

23. We can put vertebrates into 5 other groups: mammalsfishbirds reptilesamphibians

24. Mammals are vertebrates They have a backbone They have lungs They are warm blooded and have fur or hair on their bodies They make milk to feed their babies They give birth to live babies. e.g. humans, monkeys, zebras, dogs, mice, horses, cats, elephants, whales, dolphins.

25. Fish are vertebrates They have a backbone They are cold blooded They have fins They use gills to breathe e.g., cod, eel, goldfish, trout, salmon, sharks

26. Birds are vertebrates They have a backbone They are warm blooded They have feathers They have beaks They lay eggs. e.g. Ostrich, chicken, pigeon, sparrow, blackbird

27. Reptiles are vertebrates They have back bones They are cold blooded They have scaly skin They live on land They have lungs for breathing They lay eggs. e.g. snake, crocodile, alligator, dinosaur

28. Amphibians are vertebrates They have backbone They are cold blooded They have slimy wet skin, They can live in water and on land They have lungs e.g. Frogs, newts, toads

29. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is warm and furry. I feed my babies on milk. I give birth to live babies.

30. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is moist and smooth. I lay eggs. I like to live in or near water.

31. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is warm and covered in feathers. I lay eggs which hatch out into chicks.

32. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is covered in hair, not feathers. I feed my babies on milk. I do not lay eggs.

33. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is covered in dry scales. I lay eggs.

34. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is cold to touch and covered in scales. I lay eggs. I use gills to breathe with under water.

35. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is moist and smooth. I lay eggs. I like to live in or near water.

36. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? My body is covered in dry scales. I lay eggs.

37. What am I? Mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian? If you stand very close to me, you will see my body is covered in hair. I feed my babies on milk.

38. We can use keys to help us put things into groups. Branching keys let you make a choice at each question.

39.  Use the classification key.  Look at the alien pictures.  Can you find their names?

40. Alien Answers

41.  In pairs.  Look at the branch key.  Put the correct pictures in the spaces.  Check somebody else's.

42. Learning outcomes What have you learned today?  Bronze: List (L3)  Silver: Describe (L4)  Gold: Explain (L5) Invertebrates
