Armed with Apologia's Flying Creatures and older brother's Apologia Biology books plus the internet, my kids did a good job organizing and classifying. They had fun AND it was a great way to help them visualize this aspect of science!
Kingdom Animalia....where did all these animals come from and who paid for them ?
Phylum Chordata ..... still a pile load of creatures!
Phylum Arthropoda
Class Crondichthyes
Class Crustacea - a tasty bunch!
Class Aves
Class Mammalia - still more!
Order Perissodactyla - My daughter's favorite
Order Carnivora (The bears were absent from this picture!)
Order Rodentia
Order Arteodactyla
Order Hexanchiformes
Order Primates
When we have more time to spend on this, I think we'll try to go further in our classification.
