Essential Questions Investigation of Phenomenon(a)
A. What evidence can you gather to
support your idea about how animals are sorted into groups? How are vertebrates related to invertebrates?
How can we use the observable properties (physical attributes) of organisms to group them? Why do some animals build their homes in trees and some dig holes in the ground to live in?
A. Living things are classified based on shared characteristics, such as vertebrates (fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals) and invertebrates, how they reproduce, and physical traits such as fur or scales. Living things can be sorted into groups in many ways. Animals are grouped, or classified, by similar characteristics.
mammal: animals that nourish their young with milk produced by mammary glands and have skin usually with some hair bird: warm-blooded egg-laying vertebrates with a body covered with feathers and forelimbs modified as wings reptile: any of a group of cold- blooded, air-breathing vertebrates (such as snakes, lizards, turtles, and alligators) that usually lays eggs and has skin covered with scales or bony plates amphibian: any organism that is able to live both on land and in water especially, any of a class of cold- blooded vertebrates (such as frogs and salamanders) fish: a cold-blooded vertebrate that lives and breathes in water and typically has a long, scaly, tapering

Performance Task 1 In Detail
Task 1 S5L1a. Animal Classification
Student Directions:
Engage: The principal of a local elementary school has noticed that animals are invading the school’s garden. He suspects that the variety of plants in the garden are attracting the wildlife, and he is concerned about the safety of students on campus. He wants to protect the animals and plants by developing a zoo exhibit at the school. Unfortunately, the principal is unable to identify the various types of animals in the garden. As a result, he has invited you and the Wildlife Rescue Group to conduct research on the animals to obtain information about the various groups of animals on campus. After your research is conducted, he wants you and the research group to design and use a model to illustrate how these animals are classified into similar groups. The principal has requested for your research group to construct a 1-2 page explanation, which communicates the unique characteristics of these animals. The information in the report must communicate the following explanations: how are animals classified, name of animals with backbones, how are the animals with backbones classified, and a model that illustrates how animals are sorted into groups. Explore: Students will obtain information on how animals are classified into 2 different groups using multimedia and print sources. Explain: Based on the information obtained, students will develop and use a model (graphic organizer, mobile, diorama, story board) to illustrate how animals are sorted into groups (vertebrate and invertebrate). Elaborate: By using multiple resources, students will construct an explanation with the use of 4 sources of evidence to illustrate how vertebrates are sorted into groups (fish, amphibians, mammals, reptiles, birds). Evaluate: Research groups will use their models to communicate and engage in argument with the use evidence describing how animals are classified. Task 1 Teacher Notes: The model should include an illustration of vertebrates (fish, amphibian, reptile, bird, and mammal) and invertebrates.

Performance Task 2 In Detail
Task 2:S5L1b:Plant Classification Model
Student Directions: Engage: Animals are not the only organisms that can be classified based upon their characteristics. Plants can be classified too, and the Principal has requested that the Wildlife Rescue team design and use a mobile model to illustrate how plants are classified into groups. The plant mobile must show representations of all of the different categories of seeded and non-seeded plants. Explore: Students obtain information about how plants are classified into groups using multi-media and print resources. Explain: Based on the information obtained, students will develop and use a model (graphic organizer, mobile, diorama, story board) to illustrate how animals are sorted into groups. Elaborate: By using multiple resources, students will construct an explanation and engage in argumentation with the use of 4 sources of evidence to illustrate how plants are sorted into groups. Evaluate: Research groups use their models to present a 1-2 page argument about plant classification. Task 2 Teacher Notes:
The plant mobiles should include seed plants and seedless plants with their subcategories.
➢ Students obtain information about how organisms are classified. Activities may include but not limited to teacher demonstration, reading trade-book or online resource, conducting research, watching online video or planning and carrying out an investigation.
➢ Students must have visuals of the plants on their mobiles.

Performance Task 3 In Detail
Task 3:S5La & S5Lb:Zoo Exhibit Student Directions: Engage: Now that you have conducted research on the different animals and plants in the garden. You and the Wildlife Research team are responsible for developing and using a model of the Zoo exhibit for the principal. This model will serve as a safe habitat for the animals and plants. Your model must include at least one invertebrate and one reptile, mammal (non-human), birds, amphibians, fish. Additionally, your model must include at least 1 seeded and 1 non-seeded plant that can survive in the same habitat with animals. Remember that your habitat should include living and non-living items in the environment. Explore: You will conduct research using print and multi-media resources to obtain information about the specific plants and animals that can survive in the same habitat. Explain: You will design and use a model to illustrate how the animals and plants you selected for the zoo are classified into various groups. Elaborate: You should include a description of the 6 animals and at least 2 plants that will exist in your zoo exhibit, and construct an explanation and engage in argumentation with the use of 4 sources of evidence to prove that these animals and plants can coexist in the same habitat. Evaluate: You will construct an explanation to convince the principal that you have developed the best model for the animals and plants. While you are engaged in argumentation, your research group will present a minimum of 4 sources of evidence to communicate that your new exhibit will meet the various needs of all animals and plants presented in the zoo.
Task 3 Teacher Notes: Provide time for the students to present their dioramas and to engage in argumentation on who has the best designed. The projects can be judged for content and creativity for this task. Students can work in collaborative groups to complete this task.
