Animals

Herbivores, Carnivores & Omnivores

In the Montessori approach, studying animals aims to foster a deep respect for nature, develop empathy and responsibility, and promote scientific curiosity.

Learning about carnivores, herbivores, and omnivores is an essential component of a Montessori zoology curriculum. It helps children understand how animals obtain their food and how they adapt to their environments. This knowledge reinforces their understanding of food chain patterns and animal adaptations.

Identify, sort, and classify animals as herbivores, carnivores, or omnivores. Then, use a control chart to verify the classification.

This set includes:

  • 3 category labels
  • 9 herbivore picture cards
  • 9 carnivore picture cards
  • 9 omnivore picture cards
  • 3 definition cards
  • 2 control charts (one with labels, one without)

Cards are approx. 2½" x 3½", control charts are 8½" x 11".
