Year 6 Science Evolution: Lesson 4 - Inheritance and Variation
Lesson 4 of 5 on the topic of Evolution
This is one of my favourites and we discuss how diverse and adaptable dogs are as a species. There is a missing word passage the children complete, then we discuss what happens if two different species of animals were to mate (some silly examples!) what features would the offspring have?
I use my dog as an example as she was DNA tested to show four different breeds in her ancestry, a pug, beagle, chihuahua, and american eskimo dog. All my children guessed Jack russell!
I then suggest an investigation the children can do in class or as homework, my example is of eye colour but this can be changed or voted on in small groups too.
A great fun lesson that gets the children talking!
