Evolution and Natural Selection game

Use this activity to model random mutations leading to biodiversity and then show how natural selection chooses the best adapted organisms for survival. The game consists of blank creature cards that students use to build features based on random mutations from dice rolls and 20 natural selection cards that choose which of the mutated creatures are fit to survive and which are destined for extinction. This is a 20-30 minute activity for 14 -15 years to reinforce evolutionary theory.
