Grouping and Classifying

Project overview

This project teaches children about the grouping of living things, known as classification. They study local and wider habitats and use classification keys to identify living things. Children also learn about the impact of human influences on habitats and their living things.

It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogy โ€“ Engage, Develop, Innovate, Express โ€“ to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.

*This project is part of the Cornerstones Science Curriculum and is not sold separately.
