This Kingdoms of Life Mix and Match Game is an excellent way to review the concepts of classification and taxonomy. When teaching a unit on classification and taxonomy, the presentation of the six kingdom classification system seems pretty easy and straight forward, right? When I ask my students what kingdom frogs belong to, I know without a doubt that they are going to say "Animalia." For our middle and high school life science students, learning which organisms belong to which kingdom is a simple task that is quickly and easily mastered. But when I ask my students questions like these, they will hesitate. And often give the wrong answer. Name the kingdom that contains heterotrophic plants. Name the kingdom in which all members are autotrophs. Name the kingdom that contains prokaryotes with peptidoglycans in their cell walls. Name two kingdoms in which all members are heterotrophs. Name the kingdom that contains organisms with specialized cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems. Name the kingdom in which all members have cell walls composed of cellulose.

My latest creation is this Kingdoms of Life Mix/Match Game. Students are given 6 larger cards. Each large card has the name of one of the six kingdoms in the 6-kingdom classification system. The set also has 80 "answer cards." Students are tasked with matching the answer card to the correct kingdom. The game comes with student answer sheets and a 7-page teacher guide. The student answer sheets are optional, but I always have my students record the answer card statements on the answer sheet. Writing is a way of studying, and the answer sheets make a great study guide for the unit test. The teacher guide has lots of suggestions for how to use the game, directions for set up and implementation, and of course, a complete answer key. The game is perfect for all life science students of different ability levels because you can easily differentiate the game for any group of learners. By selecting which answer cards to use, you can make the game perfect for any ability level.
