Understanding the characteristics and classification of living beings forms a crucial part of primary education. At various levels, students learn to distinguish between living and non-living entities, identify differences between animals and plants, and observe their respective roles in ecosystems.
Observing and identifying the internal structure of vertebrates and invertebrates; some elements related to agriculture and the relationships established in ecosystems.
The causes of extinction of species related to food chains.
Other relationships (mutualism, parasitism, etc.).
Food chains.
The use of didactic material (photographs, etc.).
The relationship between humans and animals and their care.
The process of photosynthesis.
Agriculture: study and cultivation of plant species in the classroom/laboratory/school garden.
Vertebrates and invertebrates (internal and external structure).
5º PRIMARY
Identifying, knowing and explaining the internal and external characteristics of living beings and terrestrial ecosystems.
Using teaching materials and ICT resources efficiently and responsibly.
The environment (excursions, visits...).
The causes of extinction of species in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
The main ecosystems of the Valencian Community.
Terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
Populations, communities and ecosystems.
The use of didactic materials (documentaries...)
Nutrition and reproduction of plants.
The classification of animals in relation to their vital functions.
The use of PC programmes and applications.
The internal structure of living beings (cells, etc.).
6º PRIMARY
Using ICT resources effectively and responsibly.
Identifying and explaining the different parts and types of cells.
