Science Made Fun: Are reptiles warm-blooded or cold-blooded? What about mammals? Young readers learn about different species groups and how each animal gets classified into them in this kid’s book. Build Reading Skills: This engaging 24-page children’s book will help your child improve comprehension and build confidence with post-reading comprehension questions, extension activities, and high frequency vocabulary words. Leveled Reading: Part of the My Science Library series, the early reading text and vibrant photographs make this kid’s book a fun, informative title that teaches children about classifying different species in the animal kingdom. Why Rourke Educational Media: Since 1980, Rourke Publishing Company has specialized in publishing engaging and diverse non-fiction and fiction books for children in a wide range of subjects that support reading success on a level that has no limits.

Through simple yet engaging language and detailed images and charts, readers will explore the work of Aristotle, Linnaeus, Darwin, and other well-known, and some not so well-known, figures throughout history who tried to make sense of the natural world, as well as the breakthroughs and technologies that allow scientists to study organisms down to the genetic level. This book supports the Next Generation Science Standards on heredity and biological evolution by helping students understand how mutations lead to genetic variation, which in turn leads to natural selection. In addition, informative sidebars, a bibliography, and a Further Reading section with current books and educational websites will allow inquisitive minds to dive deeper into the evolutionary relationships among organisms.

Explains how scientists classify living organisms, how the science of classification has changed over time, how the natural world continues to evolve, and where everyday living things fit into the classification system.

Dive into biological classification with this enlightening book, tailored for Grade 6-8 students. Unravel the complexities of how living organisms are grouped into domains, kingdoms, and beyond based on their similarities and evolutionary relationships. This book covers the evolution of taxonomy from the pioneering work of Aristotle to Linnaeus's binomial nomenclature and the modern classifications introduced by Carl Woese. Perfect for teachers seeking to enrich their life science curriculum, it clearly explains the criteria used to classify Earth's vast diversity of life. Engage your students with the fascinating history and structure of the living world's catalog.

All living things can be classified depending on their characteristics. There is a total of five major kingdoms used in the classification. These are: Monera, Fungi, Animalia, Protista and Plantae. How are organisms classified? Well, there’s a system in doing that, which will be discussed in the following pages too. Grab a copy for your fifth grader today.

Living things are classified into domains and kingdoms. But because life on Earth is too varied and complex, these two classifications are further broken down into more specific subcategories dubbed as family, genus and species. This science book will cover the process of life classification. It will also touch on dichotomous keys, which allow students to classify organisms based on their physical characteristics.
