This comprehensive evolution unit has everything you need to teach principles of natural selection, evidence for evolution, Darwin's history, and mechanisms of macroevolution and microevolution. This NGSS aligned evolution bundle takes your students on an adventure through evolution from notes to the test, and all the fun stuff in between: reading exercises, labs, games, web quests, and more are included in this evolution unit! Google Links are also included for the evolution activities have been adapted for online learning. Included in the evolution unit plan: Evolution Notes PowerPoint Presentation Charles Darwin Interview Theory of Natural Selection Reading Exercise Modeling Evolution: The Charlie Shuffle Natural Selection Reading Exercise The Hungry Games: A Game of Natural Selection Evolution Task Cards Mimicry and Camouflage Worksheet and Presentation Evidence for Evolution Web Quest: Homologies and Analogies Evidence for Evolution Web Quest: All Things Evidence Homologous and Vestigial Structures Worksheet/Lab Evolution of Birds Reading Tricky Ticks: Pesticide Resistance Evidence for Evolution: Biochemicals Evolution Study Guide Evolution Quiz and Evolution Test Bundle The evolution unit plan comes with pacing guides for 50 minute and 90 minute classes! Do you also incorporate interactive notebooks into your lessons? I offer an evolution and natural selection interactive notebook. Or, you can check out this INB biology bundle, which includes the evolution INB plus 7 other sets for a discount! This unit is NGSS aligned and meets the following standards: HS-LS4-1. Communicate scientific information that common ancestry and biological evolution are supported by multiple lines of empirical evidence, including molecular, anatomical, and developmental similarities inherited from a common ancestor (homologies), seen through fossils and laboratory and field observations. Clarification Statement: HS-LS4-2. Construct an explanation based on evidence that Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection occurs in a population when the following conditions are met: (a) more offspring are produced than can be supported by the environment, (b) there is heritable variation among individuals, and (c) some of these variations lead to differential fitness among individuals as some individuals are better able to compete for limited resources than others. Clarification Statement: • Emphasis is on the overall result of an increase in the proportion of those individuals with advantageous heritable traits that are better able to survive and reproduce in the environment HS-LS4-5. Evaluate models that demonstrate how changes in an environment may result in the evolution of a population of a given species, the emergence of new species over generations, or the extinction of other species due to the processes of genetic drift, gene flow, mutation, and natural selection. ☆☆Follow me on☆☆ Pinterest Facebook Instagram Newsletter Terms of Use: Vanessa Jason Biology Roots For single classroom only; not to be shared publicly (do not create publicly accessible links).
