  2. Content Area: Science • Grade Level: 3rd • Summary: The purpose of this instructional Powerpoint is to help the students learn the different classifications of animals and what animals go into each category. • Learning Objective: Given a mixture of different animals, the student will correctly identify the animals with their different classes (herbivore, omnivore, carnivore, or scavenger) with 90% accuracy. • Content Standard: SPI 0407.5.1 Determine how a physical or behavioral adaptation can enhance the chances of survival. • SPI 0407.5.2 Infer the possible reasons why a species became endangered or extinct. • Accomplishment: Learn the different classes of animals and the animals that go into the categories

  3. What are the different animal classes? Carnivore- An animal who eats mainly meat. Omnivore- An animal who eats both meat and plants. Herbivore- An animal who eats strictly plants. Scavenger- An animal who eats already dead life forms.

  4. Carnivorea.k.aCarnivora There are many different carnivores in the animal kingdom Most carnivores are good hunters, with sharp teeth, good sense of smell, and have good eyesight In fact, some plants are carnivores. Take a look at this website to learn more about carnivorous plants! http://findfunfacts.appspot.com/animals_plants/carniplant.html

  5. Omnivorea.k.aherbivora Humans are considered Omnivores Omnivores are able to survive well in almost any environment because of their diet Click here for some interesting facts about omnivores! http://www.nhptv.org/natureworks/nwep10b.htm

  6. Herbivorea.k.aHerbivora Many cud-chewing animals (such as a cow) are herbivores Because they need so much food and energy to stay alive, many herbivores eat all day long. Here are some examples of different herbivores! http://www.qrg.northwestern.edu/projects/marssim/simhtml/info/whats-a-herbivore.html

  7. Scavenger Rather than hunting for their food, scavengers find already dead carcasses to feed on instead Some watch others animals kill a prey, and then steal the dead animal from them For a better understanding of a scavenger, click on the link below! http://www.factmonster.com/ipka/A0768543.html

  10. Almost finished!What is another name for a herbivore? Herby Herbivored Herbivora Herbs

  11. What classification are humans considered to be? Carnivore Scavenger Herbivore Omnivore

  12. Last One!Which animal finds dead prey to feed on? Carnivore Scavenger Herbivore Omnivore

  13. Accomplishment This lesson will help students learn what the difference is between these four classifications of animals They will have also learned the definitions of a carnivore, herbivore, omnivore, and a scavenger and are able to apply those definitions to be able to know what animal belongs with each category.
