In this yummy biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners participate in a demonstration of natural selection.

Professor John Endler traveled to Trinidad in the 1970s to study wild guppies. In this activity, learners take part in an online simulation of Endler's work.

In order to examine the random nature of mutations and natural selection, learners "breed" clutches of Egyptian Origami Birds (Avis papyrus) using random number generators (dice and coins) to mutate s

In this classic activity, learners investigate natural selection by becoming birds foraging for food on an island.

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

In this activity, leaners will observe the process of natural selection on a population of birds called 'Springbeaks' over four seasons of breeding on an isolated environment called 'Clippy Island.' L

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.

In this online activity, learners discover how random variation influences biological evolution.

In this activity (p.3-4 of PDF), learners learn about disease transmission and antibiotic resistance.

In this simulation, learners become birds different beak types. Learners use various tools to represent beaks to pick up seeds and place them in a petri dish.

In this activity, learners explore the concepts of natural selection and observable traits in a game that can be played at home.

In this simulation game, learners play as predators equipped with genetically different “mouths” (utensils) and hunt for “prey” (assorted beans).
