What are you going to study?
2.- Find the words. You can use your dictionary or a computer.
Read the following texts
1. Living Things.
Both animals and plants are living things because they are born,
grow up, reproduce and die.
All living things perform all of these functions. A tiger, a deer,
a cypress and a flower are all living things.

are born grow up reproduce die


2. Animals
We can classify animals in different ways, depending
on they way they are born, how they reproduce and what
they eat.
· We classify them according to their skeleton.
- Animals with bones are called vertebrates.
- Animals without bones are called
invertebrates.

Animals with bones
and a spinal column
are called vertebrates.
Animals without bones
are called
invertebrates.

We can also classify animals according to the way
they reproduce.
- Animals that are born from their mothers’
wombs are Viviparous.
-Animals that are born from eggs are
Oviparous.
Finally, there are three different groups that have
to do with the way animals eat
- Carnivores: they eat meat and other animals.
- Herbivores: they eat grass and plants.
- Omnivores: They eat both meat and plants.

Viviparous
Oviparous

Carnivore
Herbivore
Omnivore

We classify animals according to three characteristics:
1. The Skeleton: vertebrates have a skeleton, but invertebrates do not have
a skeleton.
2. The way animals are born: viviparous animals are born from their
mother´s womb, and oviparous animals are born from eggs.
3. The food they eat: some animals only eat plants (herbivores), others only
eat meat (carnivores) and other animals eat both plants and meat (omnivores).
ACTIVITES
3.- Read and tick the true sentences.
Herbivores only eat meat.
Molluscs are invertebrates.
Viviparous animals are born from eggs.
Lions are carnivores.
Fish are born from eggs.
Worms are vertebrates.
Amphibians and mammals are vertebrates.

4.- Are they herbivores, carnivores or omnivores?
5.- Complete this outline. Write examples
and then explain it to your mates.
6.-Guessing game! Think of an animal. Don’t tell anyone. Take turns
asking and answering question with a partner.

Vertebrates

7.- Look, listen and number.
Read the following texts
3. Vertebrates and Invertebrates.
Animals with bones are called vertebrates. Animals
without bones are called invertebrates. Some examples of
vertebrates are: mammals, birds, fish, reptiles and
amphibians. Invertebrates include: arthropods, molluscs and
worms.

4. Vertebrates
4.1. Mammals
- Most mammals are viviparous, they are born from
their mothers´womb.
- They have hair on their skin.
- They breathe with lungs.
- They can walk and run, and some of them
like dolphins can swim, even fly.
- They can be carnivores, herbivores and omnivores.
For example: dolphins, tigers…

4.2. Birds
- They are born from eggs, they lay eggs.
- They have feathers on their bodies.
- They have wings, so that they can fly.
- Birds are usually herbivores, but there are some
that are omnivores. For example: seagulls, eagles,
owls…
4.4. Reptiles
- They are oviparous and lay eggs.
- They have scales.
- They live on land and in water.
- Snakes, crocodiles and lizards are reptiles.

4.3. Fish
- They are viviparous and they also lay eggs.
- They have scales on their bodies.
- They live in water.
- They breathe with gills.
- Sharks, sardines and trout are all fish.

- Preserve animals’ natural habitats
- Recycle paper to prevent deforestation,
and plant new trees in communities
- Don’t pollute water with trash or toxic
waste
- Plant trees
- Don’t hunt animals
4.5. Amphibians

- They have wet skin.
- They breathe with lungs as adults
and with gills when they are babies.
- They live both in water and on land.

5. Invertebrates
5.1. Arthropods
- Most of them are insects.
- They are oviparous and they lay eggs.
- Their bodies have three parts: head,
thorax and abdomen.
- They have six legs.
- Some of them have wings.
- All insects are arthropods.
5.2. Mollusc
- They have a soft body and a hard
shell.
- Some of them live on land and others
live in water.
- Octopi, crabs, snails and clams
are molluscs.

5.3. Worms
- They have a thin, soft body with no
legs.
- They crawl.
- Some worms live in water, and
others live on land.

There are two main groups of animals: vertebrates and invertebrates.
1. Vertebrates have a spinal column and bones. We have five different groups
of vertebrates: mammals, fish, birds, reptiles and amphibians.
2. Invertebrates do not have a skeleton or spinal column. We have three main
groups of invertebrates: arthropods, mollusc and worms.
ACTIVITES
8.- Read and write the correct group.
· They are invertebrates, they have a soft and thin body, they can crawl.
________________
· They usually live on land, they breathe with lungs, they have hair on their
bodies, they are viviparous and they can be carnivores, herbivores or
omnivores. ________________
· They are invertebrates, they have six legs, their bodies are divided into
three parts: head, thorax and abdomen, many of them have wings and can
fly. ________________
· They are born from eggs, so they are viviparous. They also lay eggs, they
have wet skin and they live both in water and on land. ________________
9.- Colour the animals and complete the chart.

10.- Match.
· Some reptiles and worms can do it. · worms
· They are arthropods and have six legs. · vertebrates
· They have a spinal column and bones. · viviparous
· Their bodies are soft and thin. · insects
· They are vertebrates and have scales. · reptiles
· Animals which are born from their · crawl
mothers´wombs.
11.- Draw and describe the animal.

13.- Read the paragraph. Then, choose one animal and write
your own paragraph! Draw or stick a photo of the animal in the box.
Elephants live in warm habitats. They are
vertebrates; they are mammals. Elephants are
viviparous because they are born from their mothers’
wombs. They are also herbivores because they eat
only plants. They can walk and run. They have big ears
and a long trunk.
