Four fully resourced lessons that focus on classification in Year 6 Living Things, getting children to consider how they might classify before beginning to learn about the actual classification system. This then moves on to children working on different classes and creating their own animal based on a particular class.

A lesson for Year 6 based on Living Things where children will create their own animal. Included is a recap of the classification system before children then think about the different classes and how they will create an animal that fits the criteria for one of the classes.

A lesson for Year 6 Living Things that gets children to consider the different classes that make class in the classification system. This includes a recap on the system of classification before then looking at the different groups within class. Children will then work through an activity that requires them to match up statements to the correct class before considering animals that fit in the different classes.

A presentation that gets children to create their own experiment to see whether they can affect magnetism through the use of different materials. The slides get them to work as a class/ individually or in groups to think about and write up different aspects of the investigation while they also have an investigation mat to help them.

A simple activity where children draw what the moon likes like each night whilst deciding which phase of the moon it is by using their help sheet.
