In this simulation of natural selection, learners use binder clips in three different sizes to represent the diversity of beak sizes in a bird population.

This is an outdoor activity designed to demonstrate evolution of feeding behavior in flocking, schooling or herding animals that maximizes allocation of food resources and enhances survival.

In this activity, learners are divided into teams.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

This is an activity about the adaptations that allow the Aye-aye to survive in its habitat. Learners will explore how the Aye-aye collects food and how this is influenced by their specialized finger.

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of permeability to better understand why amphibians are extremely sensitive to pollution.

In this activity, learners make edible T. rex teeth (with adult assistance). The treat is a white and dark chocolate covered banana on a stick.

In this activity, learners count and measure kidney beans to explore natural selection and variation. Learners measure the length of 50-100 beans.

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection by encouraging them to formulate questions that can be answered through scientific investi

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection through data collection and pattern recognition.
