Description
We often observe kids chasing butterflies in the garden or playing with puppies on the road. Just the way kids love these animals, it is also important for them to be able to identify and classify them and their various types. Animals can be classified into different categories:
- Insects
- Birds
- Fishes
- Reptiles
- Mammals
And to make this identification easier, we have our Types of Animals Worksheet that covers all the aforesaid animal types in an interactive animal classification game. The worksheet involves illustrations of the various types of animals, with each page dedicated to different types of animals and their definitions. On every page, kids need to identify and circle the animals that belong to the same category among all the animal images. For example, on one page, the definition of insects is provided, and the kids are asked to identify and circle the images of insects among the following animals: cat, butterfly, puppy, turtle, and honeybees. Accordingly, the images of butterflies and honeybees (which are insects) must be circled. Similarly, the worksheet has several pages that include the following tasks:
- Animal classification
- Bird features identification
- Mammal traits identification
- Reptiles feature identification
- Insects identification
Available in free printable PDFs of 6 pages, this is a great preschool Animal Sorting Worksheet that can be a perfect match for science lessons and even homeschooling. Teachers and parents can use these sheets as Animal Identification Quiz Charts to teach kids and help them differentiate animals on the basis of their types, features, habitat, etc.
