An omnivore is an animal that eats both plants and animals. Many different animals fall into this category, for example:

It's a nice activity
This looks super thank you. I know that parents working at home with their children currently will find this really useful.
Hello thelittlecollector,

Great idea, jportland! :)
ellie.r@Twinkl 10 years agogreat resource to help our kids
Great resource for Year 1 pupils as the introduction to this topic - thanks you!
Great for sorting and helpful having info on what animals eat BUT why say dogs eat plants - that's not their biological makeup; 2 other sources state hedgehogs are carnivores, not omnivores. That made me worry there may be other inaccuracies.
Hello Daniep,
Thanks for spotting this. I'll let the design team know right away and get this looked at.
Rebecca.O4684@Twinkl 5 years agoOur lovely team have checked this for you, and have found the resource to be correct. Although a hedgehog's diet is mostly meat-based, they will eat fruit or plants if these are available. In addition, although dogs too mostly eat meat, some plant-based foods such as grains are necessary for them to have a well functioning digestive system.
I hope this helps :)
Louise.R@Twinkl 5 years agoA lovely resource thank you - I would love to have more animals for sorting please

Justine.J@Twinkl 8 years agoLovely lesson!
Hi
I adapted this resource for my Year 2 class. I used the cards but wrote a little bit about each animal so it wasn't so obvious which classification they were. Eg, I am like to make a nest for my eggs. When my chicks hatch I give them some worms while I nibble on some seeds or bread.
This is so that the children have to lift the information instead of it being obvious for them (they are fab readers)
Thank you for such a great resource!
Lovely thanks :)
Great for teaching Animal diet - Science Year 1. Cheers!
Great resources
