When you arrive late on your first day at secondary school, you are sent to the headteacher. But a strange looking man called Darwin is in the headteacher’s office and he asks you to accompany him on a trip through time. Your mission? To prove the theory of evolution.
In this Experience your class will learn:
- How we inherit characteristics from our parents
- How animals become suited to their environment over time by inheriting favourable characteristics
- The role of natural selection (“survival of the fittest”) in this process
- How Charles Darwin proved the theory of evolution (in the face of opposition)
This Experience includes a Teacher Resource Pack linking the Evolution Experience to:
- Literacy activities
- Storyboard
- Factual Quiz
