Making an animal kingdom classification chart for the animal kingdom is not as hard as it seems once you know your basic animal classifications and a way to chart them.

Steps:

To make your animal kingdom classification chart you must first understand how our animal kingdom is classified.

Start by breaking the animal kingdom into two basic categories:
1. animals with a backbone (vertebrates)
2. animals without a backbone (invertebrates)

Next break each of these two main animal kingdom classifications into their respective sub categories to chart them.

Animals without backbones are:
1. poriforae (sponges)
2. starfish
3. mollusks (snail, clams)
4. arthropods (spiders, insects, crustaceans)

Animals with backbones include:
1. cold blooded reptiles (snakes, lizards, turtles)
2. warm blooded mammals (man, dolphins, whales)
3. winged (birds)
4. gills (fish)
5. lungs and gilled amphibians (frogs)

Next apply these categories and there examples to your graphics program using your Corel paint shop pro or windows software and you have an animal kingdom classification chart!
