Science Lesson 1 (23/02/21)

LI: To be able to categorise living and non-living things.

• We have previously studied the different ways that we can categorise a group of things: such as mammals, birds, fish, crustaceans and so on. Today you will need to sort the images on your sheet into living or non-living fossils.
• A living fossil is a life form that has survived with little change for a large period of time and which are still around today!
• A not living fossil is a life form which has not changed for a large period of time but is not around today.
• You should then do some research of your own to add to the two categories, find at least two examples for both.
• Finally, are we as humans living fossils? Explain your answer using the definition above to help you.
