3.- NAMES GAME: Classification Game of the VERTEBRATES: Each student will have a piece of paper with: - a name of a living thing in English - a name of a living thing in Spanish - a picture of a living thing - a taxonomic group that classifies living things The students will have some seconds to join each name with its picture and the taxonomic group that living thing belongs to. Later, the students will have to exchange their pieces of paper and start again. The group who finishes before the rest each time will have the positive point!!!. These are the names: LIVING THINGS GROUP GROUP ALLIGATOR BONY FISH CHAMALEON EQUIDNA TURLES FISH EAGLE

Try to do it first without listening the video. What are vertebrates? Vertebrates are with an internal made of bone. Vertebrates are the most advanced on. The traits that make all the animals in this section l are their cords, vertebrate, and notochords. SPECIAL - SKELETON - ANIMALS ORGANISMS EARTH SPINAL
Where do vertebrates live? Each thing lives in a habitat. A provides the, and living space that each needs. There are kinds of habitat. For, a may live in part of a sunken ship or a TOUCAN may have a nest in a tree. FISH - MANY TREE - TEMPERATURE EXAMPLE - FOOD ANIMAL - LIVING HABITAT - TOUCAN What do vertebrates eat? Vertebrates have needs. They need, and. They can survive in environments in which their needs can be met. All vertebrates depend on. Some vertebrates only plants for food, while other vertebrates eat only. However, vertebrates eat both plants and animals. The three categories are carnivores, and omnivores. SOME - EAT - ONLY HERBIVORES - WATER PLANTS- AIR ANIMALS - BASIC FOOD Why are vertebrates important to the environment? Every vertebrate belongs to a. They can be of several different group chains, which make a big. Changes in a community or in an cause in the group chains and through the webs too. You are a member of your community, the way you live your makes a big difference to other living things. MANY - CHANGES LIVE - FULL WEB ENVIRONMENT - COMMUNITY MEMBERS What are the five main vertebrate groups? First of all, there are the fish. Fish live in and are the simplest vertebrate group. The groups of fish are the jawless fish, the fish and the bony fish. Fish are cold-blooded, have, gills and a heart with two chambers. Most fish have. The second group are. Amphibians live of their life in water and part on. They are cold blooded, have moist skin, no scales and most young
breath with and live in the water. They into adults, which is known as, and breath with lungs. GRADUALLY - LAND - AMPHIBIANS CHANGE - PART - CARTILAGINOUS SCALES - THREE - WATER FINS GILLS - METAMORPHOSIS The third group are reptiles. Reptiles live mainly on land and they are more than fish or amphibians. Reptiles are cold blooded, have a dry scaled skin, most have two of legs with five toes on each leg, excluding. The fourth group are. Birds are vertebrates with feathers and, and they are. Birds have wings, build in which to lay hard-shelled eggs and they care for their young until they can find food and survive on their own. Finally, the group of vertebrates are mammals. Mammals are the most complex of vertebrates. They have body coverings of or fur, are warm blooded, have more complex than other vertebrates and more complex body systems. GROUP - WINGS - PAIRS BRAINS - LAST - COMPLEX - NESTS - WARM BLOODED - SNAKES BIRDS HAIR What are other types of vertebrates? Marsupials, primates, rodents, cetaceans and seals.
