What Is a Vertebrate? | Learn about the animals of the Vertebrata subphylum

What Is a Vertebrate? | Learn about the animals of the Vertebrata subphylum Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

Did you know that mammals, reptiles, birds, fish, and amphibians all have quite a few traits in common? In this video for kids, you and your students will learn all about the different animals that belong to a group we call vertebrates. When you think of vertebrates, you probably think of the presence of a backbone. But there are even more common traits among these unique animals.

There are five key characteristics that distinguish vertebrates from other animals. They have backbones, skulls, endoskeletons, bilateral symmetry, and two pairs of appendages. These traits allow their muscles to attach to points that can be used for movement. All vertebrates also have a heart and kidneys.

Vertebrates further classify into seven classes based on their anatomical features. These classes are mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, bony fish, cartilaginous fish, and jawless fish. Mammals are endothermic so they can regulate their body temperature. Birds have feathers and toothless beaks. They also lay hard-shelled eggs. Reptiles also lay eggs. Reptiles include snakes and crocodiles. Amphibians are a little unique in that they undergo metamorphosis as they go from birth to adulthood.

The fish group divides into three classes: bony fish, cartilaginous fish, and jawless fish. Bony fish, like seahorses, have a skeleton made of bone rather than cartilage. Bony fish is the largest class of vertebrates. Sharks and rays are examples of cartilaginous fish. Primitive fish like hagfish belong to the jawless fish category.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about this small group of animals! If you want to learn even more, head over to our website and download one of our many lesson plans about different kinds of animals, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

ASL Periodic Table of Elements for Kids

ASL Periodic Table of Elements for Kids Teacherflix 3 Views • 2 years ago

What is an element? And how many known elements are there in the vast universe? Periodic Table of Elements for Kids answers these and other questions and explains how the table came to be in the first place. Elements make up everything in the whole world, so it makes sense to learn a little more about them. The Periodic Table provides us with a lot of valuable information about these different atoms.

The first person to propose that scientists arrange the elements in a table was Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869. At the time, there were only 65 known elements, and Mendeleev arranged them according to their atomic weights as well as by their similar properties. Today, the table has seven rows, called periods, and 18 columns, called groups. The elements in each group have similar properties. For instance, the elements that can be classified as alkali metals all align in one group.

What you can learn about each element on the table depends on which table you look at. Some provide more information than others. For the most part, you can discover the element's name, atomic number, atomic weight, and symbol. Many symbols reflect the name of the element. For instance, the symbol for calcium is Ca. Others reflect the Latin origins of the word, such as for gold, the symbol for which is Au.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about the many elements on Earth! If you want to learn even more, head over to our website and download one of our many free lesson plans about atoms or elements, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

The Map of Mathematics

The Map of Mathematics Teacherflix 4 Views • 1 year ago

The entire field of mathematics summarised in a single map! This shows how pure mathematics and applied mathematics relate to each other and all of the sub-topics they are made from.

#mathematics #DomainOfScience

If you would like to buy a poster of this map, they are available here:

Spanish Version: https://www.redbubble.com/peop....le/dominicwalliman/w

I have also made a version available for educational use which you can find here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/....95869671@N08/3226448

To err is to human, and I human a lot. I always try my best to be as correct as possible, but unfortunately I make mistakes. This is the errata where I correct my silly mistakes. My goal is to one day do a video with no errors!

1. The number one is not a prime number. The definition of a prime number is a number can be divided evenly only by 1, or itself. And it must be a whole number GREATER than 1. (This last bit is the bit I forgot).

2. In the trigonometry section I drew cos(theta) = opposite / adjacent. This is the kind of thing you learn in high school and guess what. I got it wrong! Dummy. It should be cos(theta) = adjacent / hypotenuse.

3. My drawing of dice is slightly wrong. Most dice have their opposite sides adding up to 7, so when I drew 3 and 4 next to each other that is incorrect.

4. I said that the Gödel Incompleteness Theorems implied that mathematics is made up by humans, but that is wrong, just ignore that statement. I have learned more about it now, here is a good video explaining it: https://youtu.be/O4ndIDcDSGc

5. In the animation about imaginary numbers I drew the real axis as vertical and the imaginary axis as horizontal which is opposite to the conventional way it is done.

Multiply by 4 | Learn Multiplication | Multiply By Music | Jack Hartmann

Multiply by 4 | Learn Multiplication | Multiply By Music | Jack Hartmann Teacherflix 12 Views • 2 years ago

Multiply by 4 and learn the 4 times table with a tropical beat. Sing along to the 4's times tables by singing along with the multiplication fact the first time through. The second time through we delay the answer so students can give the answer and then the answer is reinforced. The third time we supply the 4's times table and leave the answer blank for higher order learning.
Multiply by 4's with this catchy tropical tune to help student's learn their 4 multiplication table in order.
This song goes through each table 1 through 12 three times to give your children a chance for lots of practice.
This song also has a gradual learning structure.

First time: I sing the multiplication table I give the answer.

Second time: I say the table I delay the answer, so children have a chance to answer before me.

Third time: I completely omit the answer so children can answer on their own.

This song on learning how to Multiply by 4 is a wonderful way for your children to learn and practice the multiplication tables.

LYRICS:

Multiply by 4's

Four quarters in a football game
Four sides to a square are the same
Four wheels to a race car turn
And the 4 times table I can learn

Let's multiply by 4

4 x 1 is 4
4 x 2 is 8
4 x 3 is 12
4 x 4 is 16
4 x 5 is 20

4 x 7 is 28
4 x 8 is 32
4 x 9 is 36
4 x 10 is 40
4 x 11 is 44
4 x 12 is 48

Four quarters in a football game
Four sides to a square are the same
Four wheels to a race car turn
And the 4 times table I can learn

Now say the answer before me

4 x 1 is 4
4 x 2 is 8
4 x 3 is 12
4 x 4 is 16
4 x 5 is 20
