A visual aid to support children when learning about the seven different characteristics of living things: M.R.S.G.R.E.N. After teaching this to children, they made their own version to use to support their learning which they loved. Enjoy! This lesson is included in my medium term plan for Living Things and Their Habitats which can be found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-13024195

A classification activity for children learning about ‘Living Things and their Habitats.’ This resource includes 2 Venn Diagrams (one more complex than the other) and 1 Carroll Diagram. The children can then add their own criteria to the diagrams e.g. has a back bone, lives in the desert and then should use the images (also included) to classify the animals and plants. Children could also draw their own images. This resource is completely ready to go! Enjoy :)
