information you learned about the different kingdoms into one concept map. All terms must be included. You may create this concept map however you like. You may use pen and paper or you may choose to use a computer program/digital tool. Another option would be to use index cards to write the terms on them and then organize them on a flat surface and take a picture to submit when complete. This could be done with “sticky notes” on a wall too. There are lots of terms and you must consider how they will be organized together. Notice how, in the example above, the categories or ‘groupings’ that were not official scientific classifications (for example, simple invertebrates, worm-like invertebrates, complex invertebrates, joint-legged invertebrates, invertebrates, and vertebrates) do not have kingdom, phylum, or class in front of them

Now, it is time to put together all the information you learned about the different kingdoms into one concept map. All terms must be included. You may create this concept map however you like. You may use pen and paper or you may choose to use a computer program/digital tool. Another option would be to use index cards to write the terms on them and then organize them on a flat surface and take a picture to submit when complete. This could be done with “sticky notes” on a wall too. There are lots of terms and you must consider how they will be organized together. Notice how, in the example above, the categories or ‘groupings’ that were not official scientific classifications (for example, simple invertebrates, worm-like invertebrates, complex invertebrates, joint-legged invertebrates, invertebrates, and vertebrates) do not have kingdom, phylum, or class in front of them. They are just classifications that scientists use to help them understand the living world. In your concept map, make sure you can tell which classifications are official phyla and which ones are just groupings scientists make to help their understanding. The reason this is done is because there are so many phyla in each kingdom. In your concept map, aim to incorporate and make connections between all the terms as provided in the table below. Include characteristics and common features in your concept map. Organizing all of this will be difficult, but stick with it. It will help to get the big picture of all the material and terms you have learned throughout this unit.
