Week of
Sept. 8th - 19th
*Note: This Science Question of the Week is a bit more complicated, so I'm giving you an extra week. If you choose to complete it and do a good job, you'll get 2 pieces of candy for this one!
Step 1: Watch all 4 videos about Uncovering Evolutionary Relationships with Extinct Species at this link. Take notes on each video and submit them to me via email or by sharing a Google Doc.
Step 2: Email me at sindt.kathleen@westside66.net to get a copy of the pdf I've linked below. Upon receiving your request, I'll put a copy in your homeroom teacher's mailbox.
Step 3: Complete the Comparative Anatomy: Extinct vs. Modern Species Mini-Project where you will compare the anatomy of an extinct species from Museum Alive with David Attenborough to that of a modern-day animal. Use visual evidence and scientific reasoning to show how similarities and differences in body structures help scientists understand evolution.
Step 4: Ask your homeroom or science teacher to put your completed PDF in my mailbox sometime before the due date.
Email Mr. Condon for more information!
