·    learn to differentiate between vertebrates and invertebrates

·    learn to identify the characteristics of vertebrates

·    learn to identify the characteristics of invertebrates

Additionally in this unit, your child will investigate insects using information they find on the Internet.

I upload some videos and online games your child can play to reinforce the content.
