In 6LD @RF, we have been learning about living things and their habitats. Living things can be grouped according to different criteria (where they live, what type of organism they are, what features they have). For example, a camel can belong in a group of vertebrates, a group of animals that live in the desert, and a group of animals that have four legs.

A classification key is a tool that is used to group living things to help us identify them using recognisable characteristics.
