Description
Your students can listen to you as you tell them about evolution by genetic drift. But, what if they could develop their own understanding of evolution by genetic drift by simulating the process in this Genetic Drift Bug exploration activity. This activity simulates the random change that alleles get passed on to successive generations resulting in the change in allele frequencies over time in a population. Directions are included for a student-led or teacher led experience. You choose! You can also choose between two differentiated levels of conclusion questions (constructed response or fill in the blank). Add the completed version of the activity to an interactive notebook as notes or use it as an assessment. As the teacher, you simply provide coloring tools and print with this no-prep, ready to use, engaging learning resource.
The Genetic Drift Bug Discovery Docs activity is just what you need to add to your Biology lesson plan to engage your middle school or high school students in a meaningful and rigorous learning activity while impressing your administrators. What are you waiting for? Print and go!
