Students draw a line from each of the named animals to a feature of this animal.

Students are given eight pictures of animals and are asked to identify which of these are mammals. Students are also asked to give two features of mammals.

For this practical task, students join 'dominos'. They match an animal feature on the initial 'domino' with the appropriate animal picture on the next 'domino'.

Decide whether the photographed animals are reptiles or not, and justify responses. (A fact file giving the features of reptiles is given.) Answer a question about why scientists have an agreed way of grouping living things. Assessment focus: using science-based classifications.
