ASSIGNMENT
MODULE 9
Q2: Explain how the children are introduced to the vertebrates and
invertebrates, five classes of vertebrate and then the body parts of a
typical animal of each class?
VERTEBRATE AND INVERTEBRATE
Presentation: Introduce the spinal cord to a small group of children. Note that the
back bone is made up of many little bones called vertebrae. In the center of the bones
is what is called the spinal cord. The soft discs are between the bones so that they do
not rub together. Show the children where their backbone is and have them feel it.
Show the movement of the column and encourage the children to move in different
ways. Say, "You have a backbone, you are a vertebrate. Animals without a backbone
are called invertebrates". Introduce the set of cards to the child and have them
identify the animals. Help them sort the pictures into the appropriate categories by
prompting the child's observations. Note the tails of the vertebrate animals as an
extension of their backbone. When finished the children can check their work by the
coding on the back.
Purpose: To identify animals with vertebral columns and animals without vertebral
columns.
Q3: Prepare the following material and send to your tutor along with
the assignment:
Four part nomenclature material for the parts of flower.
