Brain Pop Jr. does a great job of introducing Animal Classification. Lucky for us, their video on Animal Classification is one of the FREE videos. By watching this video the kids will learn about Vertebrates (animals that have a backbone) and Invertebrates (animals that do NOT have a backbone) followed by the characteristics of the 5 Vertebrate classes.

Reptiles






Amphibians
