Natural Selection- the Peppered Moth

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Can human activity cause animals to evolve? Your budding biologists will find out the answer to some of the big questions in natural selection with a peppered moth activity. They will watch a few short videos, look at pictures, and examine the evolution of peppered moths due to the industrial revolution. After their research, learners will answer analysis questions about the topic. There is not a lot of lesson information in the teacher resource page, but the handout will walk your kids through what they need to do to complete the activities.
