Vertebrates and invertebrates

Our world is full of different living things! Plants, house pets, insects and even us humans!

Because there are so many different types of living things, scientists sort them into 2 big groups: vertebrates and invertebrates.


Some examples of vertebrates are: mammals (monkeys/ elephants)/ birds (duck/ chicken)/ fish (shark)/ amphibians (frogs/ toads) / reptiles (snake/ turtle)

Some examples of invertebrates are: starfish, earthworms, crabs, shrimps, insects (ants, beetles, ladybirds)

TASK
Try to classify the following animals into vertebrates or invertebrates.

Sort the vertebrates into specific groups: fish/ birds/ mammals/ amphibians/ reptiles
You can use this to help you.
