Description
Teach your science students about the classification of living things with this digital reading passage and learning activities set! Everything your students need to integrate the classification of living things into their science knowledge is included.
These digital learning activities are designed based on the latest brain science research to help every student in your class build strong neural networks related to the classification of living things so that they can apply this knowledge later.
Students start by trying to define vocabulary words and answer questions about the classification of living things in biology on the preview page. Getting the right answer isn’t important. Simply trying to answer the questions will activate the students’ related neural networks and prepare them to create new neural connections.
Next, students read about the classification of living things. Activity pages are interspersed among the information pages to give students the opportunity to consolidate their new memories.
After learning about the classification of living things, students practice remembering what they learned using quizzes and flashcards. You get both a printable quiz and a Google Forms quiz to give your students options in how they review the material.
Video links are included as a tool for students who need support to understand the information or an extension for early finishers.
