Can you meet the challenge?

What clues can we use to remember the different
classification groups for invertebrates?
Activity Directions:
1 – Work with your partner to place
each “critter card” in its correct
location around the edges of the
classification mat.
2 – Write the names of the organisms
in the correct location on your “What
am I?” worksheet.
3 – When you are done, have your teacher
check your answers.
NOTE: There are three extra organisms listed
on the worksheet that are not on the critter
cards! Can you figure out where they go?
CHALLENGE RULES
1 – Shuffle the cards and place in ONE pile on the table.
2 – Start the timer and then pick up the cards and start sorting.
NOTE: If you are working with a partner, you cannot split the
cards into two piles until after you start the timer!
3 – Stop the timer when you are done. Have a teacher check your answers.
4 – If all your answers are correct AND you completed the task in 30
seconds or less, write your name on the board !
