Learning Activities: This lesson is an introduction to classification. It looks at the "Why" and "How" scientists classify. Slides 4 ­ 9 are to help students understand and make personal connections to why we classify things. Slides 10 ­ 14 introduce students to how scientists classify species, include pictures for a visual learner and has students create their own acronym to remember the order of classification. ﴾NOTE: you may want to verbally mention that this system of classification may change with new information such as DNA.﴿ The lesson also includes practice on how to create a flowchart ﴾slides 15 & 16﴿ and how to read dichotomous key ﴾slides 17 & 18﴿. These are both interactive demonstrations that students use the SMARTboard as well as hands on manipulative at their desk.
Assessment: Students will be able to use a dichotomous key to correctly identify Pamishan Creatures. This will help student to understand how scientist classify species. Additional Resources needed:
• Pamishan Creatures found online at http://www.biologycorner.com/worksheets/pamishan.html • Guided Notes ﴾copy on next page﴿
