Tax-o-mazing!

The internet is so doggone useful! We have just started a new biology book and studied a lesson about how living things are scientifically classified, a.k.a: taxonomy. You know - Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species (King Phillip Cried Out, “For Goodness Sake!”)? I wanted to give the kids a sampling of the whole scheme for humans and cats, but couldn’t find all the branches of the animal kingdom in any book we have. Just as I suspected, someone, the University of Maryland and the University of Michigan Museum of Zoology to be exact, has created an interactive taxonomy tree. Just click on a branch and follow it all the way to the species. It is so cool! I have had more fun with subjects I HATED as a kid since I we started homeschooling…

Here are pictures of Z’s layered book:
