Animal Feeding Workshop

Suggestions for activities to do after the Animal Feeding Workshop at the Barcelona Zoo: 

Natural sciences space:

• Do the worksheets at school that are included in the Animal Feeding workbook.
• Make murals with the photos of animals collected, grouping them their feeding types.
• Classify the animals above into their corresponding categories: herbivores, carnivores, piscivores, insectivores, frugivores, carrion-eating, filter feeders and omnivores.
• Make the students prepare ‘lectures’ about the foods of vertebrates, individually or in groups, to present to their classmates.
  
• Write and/or represent stories about feeding strategies that are collected or invented by the students, which contain information learned during the activity.
• Make a book or album about animal foods that contains everything learned. 
• Look for similarities and differences between different vertebrates that have the same food. For example: lion-eagle-crocodile.
  

Evaluation of learning obtained:

• When looking at the photograph of animals, students must establish: the type of food they eat and the strategies employed to obtain food.
