SESSION 1 and 2- Classification of animals

In this session, the European Commission will meet to investigate and resolve the following question: What differences do we find between the five families of animals?

The objectives to work on in this session are:

    - 2.1. Classify animals according to their natural habitat. 

    - 2.2. Identify the different types of animals and their characteristics. 

The estimated time of the session will be approximately 2 session. In the first hour, we are going to start with an individual questionnaire and then we are going to explain students the content. In the second hour, they will complete the padlet.

LESSON 1

Firstly, a form will be given to each child so we can check the previous knowledge that our students have as well as they warm up with the previous knowledge.

https://forms.gle/dDtn7pGf7A4SPnYv6

The class will be divided in groups of 5 members each one. We are going to explain them how the padlet website works so that they can carry out the activity without any problem. To do the activity, they will have to look for information on the internet so that they can be able to classify the different characteristics of the animals.

As we can see in the photo, the information students will have to complete in the padlet is:

  1. Mammals, amphibians, reptiles, birds, fish.
  2. Oviparous and viviparous.
  3. Carnivore, herbivore and omnivore.
  4. Vertebrate and invertebrate.
  5. Aquatic, terrestrial, aerial.
Evaluation
The previous ideas will be evaluated through the Google Forms that will be delivered to each student.

The answers put into the padlet will help the teacher to know if his/her students have searched the information correctly.

While students search the information, the teacher will observe if they are doing the required activity correctly.



LESSON 2

In the first part of the class, the class will share and discuss what the groups have put in the padlet based on the information they have found on the Internet.


In the second part of the lesson, the teacher will explain the contents about the main families of animals and their principal characteristics. The methodology used by the teacher will be the exposition, with the support of canva or any other presentation website.

The structure of the presentation should be like this:

 In today's meeting we have remade the session nuember six and seven.  In the session number 6, we have expanded the information as we have been doing for the past ones. We have added the message of the European Comission too so that children can understand better the purpose of the activity. Besides, we have add an image of the map the kids will need to follow in order to reach the QR and a rubric for further evaluation.  In session number 7, we have enhanced the class similarly to the previous session. We included instructions on how to operate the Bee-Boots, along with additional messages and information.
