Animals – Unit 1
Living Things Called Animals
Content Learning Goals
• Students will be able to explain why some living
things are considered “animals” and how
scientists tell them apart.
Living Thing
Plant
Animal
Language Learning Goals
Be able to define:
• Classify
• Traits
• Scientific Name
Traits
• The certain way an animal looks or acts
Classify
• To put into groups based on traits
When is a living thing an animal?
When it has these traits:
• It moves by itself
• Eats food
• Needs water and
oxygen
Scientific Name
•
The name all scientists use to describe
an animal
Examples:
1. Canis familiaris
2. Felis catus
3. Equus caballus
4. Homo sapien
Animals – Unit 2
A Look at the Animal Kingdom
Content Learning Goals
• Students will learn about phyla and
classes of animals. They will be able to
identify 7 animal phyla, 5 classes of
vertebrates.
• Be able to recognize 50+ animals and
which phyla or class they belong to
Language Learning Goals
Be able to define:
• Phylum or Phyla
• Class
• Memorize the names of 50+ organisms in
the animal kingdom.
Phyla
• Group of animals with some similar traits
(scientist’s category to classify animals)
• Now we’ll look at seven phyla. They go from
very simple animals to those that are highly
complex.
Animals
Porifera
Coelentrate
Worm
Mollusk
Arthropod
Echinoderm
Vertebrate
Porifera Phylum
•
•
•
•
•
•
Have pores (holes)
“Porifera” means “having holes”
Sponges
Very simple animals
Bodies are empty sacks
The inside of the body is called the body
cavity
Sponge
Coelenterate Phylum
• Jellyfish, sea anemone and coral
• “stinging cell animals”
• Tentacles are like arms. They are used for
stinging
Jellyfish
Sea Anemone
Coral
Worm Phylum
• Parasites – animals that live inside the
bodies of other animals
• Segments – small sections
• Digestive System – mouth, intestines and
anus
• Circulatory System – Heart and blood
vessels that move blood through the body
Worm
Mollusk Phylum
• Means “soft body”
• Clams, octopus, squid, snails and slugs
Clam
Octopus
Snail
Slug
Arthropod Phylum
•
•
•
•
Have Legs with joints
Spider, bee, crayfish, ant, fly
Hard outside covering – “exoskeleton”
Bee Segments – Head, Thorax, Abdomen
Spider
Bee
Fly
Butterfly
Ant
Echinoderm Phylum
• Sea urchin, starfish, sand dollar
• Hard covering…echino means “spiny” and
derm means “skin”, so echinoderms have
spiny skin.
• Many have five-part body patterns
• Tube feet – like suction cups
Starfish
Sand dollar
Vertebrate (Sub) phylum
• Animals with backbones
• Dogs, birds, snakes and humans
• Skeleton inside the body (including a skull
covering a brain)
• Subphylum of “Chordates” – (most
chordates are vertebrates, so people
usually just use the term “vertebrate”)
Class
• Group of animals in the same
phyllum
Phylum
Subphylum
Class
• In vertebrates, this includes:
Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles,
Birds and Mammals
Chordates
Vertebrates
Fish
Amphibians
Reptiles
Birds
Mammals
Fish
Three types:
• Fish with bony skeletons (trout)
• Fish with cartilage (sharks)
• Fish without jaws (lamprey)
• All have gills to breathe and fins to move
in the water.
Fish
Shark
Lamprey or “Eel”
Amphibians
• They like water and have gills to breathe
just like fish
• BUT unlike fish, they grow up and live on
the land.
• They lay eggs in water that have no shells.
• They have skin that dries out so they stay
in wet places, but not always in the water.
Frog
Salamander
Reptiles
• They don’t need water, but some like it
• They have waterproof skin and scales
• They lay eggs with leathery shells
Snake
Turtle
Crocodile
Lizard
Birds
• They have feathers, beaks, wings and
scales on their feet
• Wings are for flying and sometimes for
swimming. Some birds can’t fly
• They lay eggs with hard shells
Bird
Chicken or Rooster (Chick)
Turkey
Duck
Mammals
•
•
•
•
They are covered in hair
They nurse their young
Most give birth instead of laying eggs
Most live on land, but some are in the sea
Dog (Puppy)
Cat (Kitten)
Rabbit (Bunny)
Cow (Calf)
Pig
Horse (Foal)
Donkey
Sheep (Lamb)
Goat
Monkey
Mouse
Lion
Tiger
Cougar
Bear
