Why does a cheetah need speed? This 22-slide interactive lesson answers What are carnivores? by exploring the hunting features that meat-eating animals share.
Children explore different carnivores and their characteristics, learning that in the wild, carnivores hunt and kill other animals for food, and identifying features such as speed, sharp teeth and claws. They learn that carnivores such as lions and eagles eat only meat, that cheetahs are known for their incredible speed, and that wolves hunt in packs. Questions check whether familiar animals, including pets, are carnivores, and where carnivores such as polar animals live.
A dependable addition to a KS1 science topic, giving children a clear link between an animal’s diet and the features that help it hunt. Comparing carnivores with herbivores and omnivores builds a rounded picture of animal groups.
