What is this Padlet? (Learning Intentions) mrsjlewis https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247567209 You will use this Padlet to build your own informational resource to explain and understand  that there are differences within and between groups of organisms and how classification helps organise this diversity. You should try to make your Padlet as visually interesting and informationally dense as you can. ]]> 2018-03-31 02:33:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247567209 10.

"Classifications of Organisms" mrsjlewis https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247568629 Go to our BLUE HUB Team Drive in Google. You will find a folder called 'Classification'. Make yourself a copy of the "Classifications of Organisms" document and change the name to your name. Fill in the table and paste the link from your googledoc into your Padlet. You may work with a friend, but you must create your own table and update it to your own Padlet. Using Google images, find some images of the organisms that you placed into your groups. Put these into your padlet too, linking the organisms using the linking tool and providing the characteristics in words that you used to classify them. ]]> 2018-03-31 03:17:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247568629 2.

Mystery Animal mrsjlewis https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247572427 Underneath these instructions write a description of one of the organisms from the Communication: classifications of Organisms activity. Ask a friend to read your description and draw a picture of your mystery animal. Ask them to label it. Get Mr Allen or Mrs Lewis to email you a picture of your friend's drawing to upload into your padlet. Did your friend draw and guess your mystery animal accuratley?

Characteristics of a living organism vs non living organism. mrsjlewis https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247573165 Create a piece of WordArt using the eight characteristics of living organisms vs non-living organisms. (eg needs nutrition vs does not need food) Can you find synonyms for the scientic terms that describe these charcteristics? You could include some examples of living and non-living organisms. Consider using different colours to indicate living vs nonliving organisms. You will find the link to make your WordArt here. (Dont forget to upload your picture to your padlet!)

Characteristics of Living Organisms mrsjlewis https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247574065  Living organisms show the following characteristics. 
  1. They move by themselves (eg flowers open during the day and close at night, and the heads of sunflowers follow the sun) 
  2.  reproduce 
  3.  need nutrition to survive 
  4.  grow 
  5.  respond to stimuli (eg plants grow towards sunlight, Venus Flytraps shut when a fly lands on them) 
  6.  resperate or exchange gases 
  7.  produce waste 
  8.  need water

How to draw a scientific, annoted diagram. mrsjlewis https://padlet.com/mrsjlewis/bluehubclassification/wish/247579067 An annotated diagram is a drawing that is used to illustrate an idea, object or concept. 
• be neat, clear and accurate 
• be of a reasonable size so that details can be clearly added
 • be clearly labelled, using arrows to show each feature. Arrows should be straight lines that do not cross over each other
 • contain accurate notes and information relating to the subject
 • have an appropriate title
 • show the scale of the drawing. 
. Indicate the envirnment that the animal lives in.
