Explore Animal Teeth With A Carnivore, Herbivore, or Omnivore Game!

Help students connect what animals eat to the shape of their teeth with this engaging digital Carnivore, Herbivore, or Omnivore Game. Using fun animal photographs featuring flat and sharp teeth, your students will learn to identify herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores by observing and thinking critically about how their teeth determine what they eat.

This self-checking Carnivore, Herbivore, or Omnivore Game is perfect for introducing animal diets in a visual, hands-on, and engaging way.

Is It An Herbivore, Carnivore, or Omnivore? Game

Each slide in our Herbivore, Carnivore, or Omnivore? Game presents students with:

• a photograph of an animal (often highlighting its teeth)
• a short, kid-friendly prompt (e.g. “This animal eats grass and leaves” or “This animal eats meat and plants”)
• clickable answer choices: herbivore, carnivore, or omnivore

The game is self-checking, making it easy to use on an interactive whiteboard for whole-class play or for students who are ready to explore independently.

This digital activity doesn’t just teach scientific vocabulary! It helps students

• observe and compare animal features
• make connections between structure and function
• explain why an animal belongs in a specific diet group
