Greetings and salutations.  This page is to be used as a resource for teachers in the classroom.  As this Taxonomy site can be used directly in the classroom, a couple of lesson plans have been provided to get the best use out of the site.  However, teachers, feel free to change them around to suit your needs.

This site is really good for students finding out what all the biology terms mean.  It is not a site to find out names or such, but very good for understanding terms to do with ecology, limnology, pharmacology, toxicology and medicine.


UCMP Phylogeny Wing: The Phylogeny of Life
 This site is great for students to find out all about their favourite animals.  They may however have to go searching through the site to find exactly what they want though.



This site is absolutely fantastic for students finding out about their favourite animals.  It's graphical, it's got alot of information and it totally rocks!



The Tree of Life
The Tree of Life is a project containing information about the diversity of organisms on Earth, their history, and characteristics.  The information is linked together in the form of the evolutionary tree that connects all organisms to each other.


This site is really helpful for teachers and students both.  It provides teachers with heaps of activity ideas and ideas about what other teachers have done.  Examples of games are online there too so that students can play them.  Overall an excellent teaching/learning resource.
