They are animals, and so they are in Animalia. Although they look lifeless, they are not.
There are five main phyla in the animal kingdom: Porifera (sponges), Cnidaria (jellyfish, corals), Platyhelminthes (flatworms), Annelida (segmented worms), and Arthropoda (insects, spiders).
They are living life forms, but they are not animals, so they are possibly a sea reef, but not an animal, I know, it gets confusing...

The phylum Porifera (sponges) is the only animal phylum that lacks true tissues and symmetry. Sponges are simple multicellular organisms with specialized cells, but they do not have tissues that are organized into distinct structures like other animals. Additionally, sponges exhibit asymmetry rather than bilateral or radial symmetry found in other phyla.
Mushrooms and toadstools are examples of fungi. Sponges are animals of the phylum Porifera. In biological terms, fungi form a kingdom. Plants have a separate kingdom. Animals have a separate kingdom.

Choanoflagellates are a group within kingdom Protista that are thought to be the closest living relatives to sponges. This is based on similarities in cell structure and genetic sequences between choanoflagellates and sponge cells.
Sponges are part of the animal kingdom, specifically in the phylum Porifera. They are multicellular organisms that lack true tissues and organs.
Sponges are heterotrophic, which is a characteristic of an animal and not a plant. Sponges are also multicellular, are made up from cells without cell walls, characteristics of the kingdom Animalia and NOT Plante.
