Salamander Notebooking Pages and Anatomy Worksheets

Your elementary and middle school students can use these free Salamanders notebooking pages and anatomy worksheets when they are studying the many species of salamanders in the amphibian order Urodela.

Did you know that some salamanders breathe through their skin and hear with their lungs? And some other salamanders don’t even have lungs?

The external anatomy worksheets will help your students understand how salamanders differ from other amphibians and from lizards.

Online resources, videos, and book recommendations are below to help you and your students learn more about these metamorphic amphibians from the class Amphibia, clade Caudata, order Urodela.
