Howdy! Let's delve into a multidisciplinary lesson designed to teach elementary students how to build simple graphs based on animals' dietary groups: omnivores, herbivores, and carnivores.

By combining the thrill of animal discovery with the fundamental principles of data representation, we can create an unforgettable learning experience that is both enjoyable and educational.

Let's get started!

Printable & Activity Objectives

💡
Age: 7 to 9 year olds, Activity Time: 1-2 hours, Items Needed: Writing and colouring pencils

In this activity, your child will colour and complete different simple graphs by identifying animals based on their dietary groups (omnivores, herbivores and carnivores).

It will help your child or student:

  • Learn about Animal Dietary Groups: Students will research and categorize various animals based on their dietary habits. Understanding the distinct characteristics of omnivores, herbivores, and carnivores will enable them to make informed decisions while creating their graphs.
  • Learn about Data Collection: Engaging in fun activities such as animal counting and classification, students will gather real-world data on the number of animals in each dietary group.
  • Learn about Basic Graph Building: With the data collected, children will learn how to construct simple graphs, such as bar graphs, to visually represent animal distribution across the dietary categories.

Let's go!
