Presentation Transcript

  1. Warm Up Cockroaches have lived on the earth for more than 250 million years, and still thrive; however some other organism have perished? Why is this true? Explain

  2. Evolution S7L5Students will examine the evolution of living organisms through inherited characteristics that promote the survival of organisms and the survival of successive generations of their offspring. a. Explain how physical characteristics of organisms have changed over successive generations (e.g., Darwin’s finches and the peppered moths of Manchester). b. Describe ways in which species on earth have evolved due to natural selection. c. Explain how the fossil record found in sedimentary rock provides evidence for the long history of changing life forms.

  3. Learning Target Today I will learn how a species can evolve to survive, so that I can better understand the changes in species in my environment.

  4. Topic: Evolution IntroductionEssential Question(MYP)How does everything change? Area of Interaction: Learner Profile: Open-Minded- “Things and the world around me is constantly changing” Balanced- “Science and technology and everyday life have connections” Reflective: “The concepts I have learned from Ecology, Cells and Genetics will be applied to this unit .”

  5. Opening Evolution Video with notes Evolution, part 1 Evolution, part 2

  6. Work Session In todays work session you will be guided in creating Cornell Notes for Chapter 7- 1 This assignment will count as a IAN/Notebook Grade and is weighted as % of your overall grade. Each question is worth 3points and the summary is worth 5 points format is 2 point which is equal to 30 points Make sure that you complete the assignment in CORNELL NOTE Format. I will be checking for the following: Essential question Topic Question Format Correct Answers Completed Summary

  7. 1. Cornell Notes p.166 How can you tell if organisms are of the same species?

  8. 2. Cornell Note p.167 A characteristic that improves an individuals ability to survive and reproduce in a particular environment is called an_____

  9. 3. Cornell Notes p.167 What is evolution?

  10. 4. Cornell Notes p.168 Describe how fossils form

  11. 5. Cornell Notes p.168 What type of data is gained from the fossil record?

  12. 6. Cornell Notes p.172 Evidence of organisms having similar ancestry can be achieved in what two ways? Give an example of each method

  13. 7. Cornell Notes Create a graphic Organizer that distinguishes the relationship of the following terms: organism, population, species

  14. Species vs. Populaton organism

  15. Cornell Notes: Summary Write a summary of what you have learned from section 7.1, make sure you use at least 4 key terms such as: Evolution Adaptation Fossils Fossil Record Species DNA
