This bundle is packed with fun, engaging and easy to implement resources! Detailed teacher notes for each lesson will make your job easy and save you time!
- If you are teaching NGSS Disciplinary Core Ideas LS4.B and LS4.C: Natural Selection and Adaptations, LS4.A: Evidence of Common Ancestry and Diversity, and need an online distance learning resource, this is perfect for you! Below is currently the scope and sequence. However, I will be adding more resources quickly. This resource will continue to increase in price, but if you buy this resource now, it’s at a huge discounted price!
- How will I be notified that new activities have been posted? Please follow me so that you receive the new product emails. Then simply re-download the bundle to copy over the new item(s). Already purchased and wondering how to access new files? Continue to follow me to get the notification emails of new products. Then, simply re-download the bundle and copy over the new items.
- What I have so far is about 4-6 weeks minimum for my pacing. My district is taking Distance Learning slow and encouraging us to not assign too much during this pandemic, so it may be different for you.

This resource has the following NGSS Standards:
Click here or read below Natural Selection and Evolution
NGSS Disciplinary Core Ides (DCI):
LS4.C: Adaptation: Anatomical similarities and differences between various organisms living today and between them and organisms in the fossil record, enable the reconstruction of evolutionary history and the inference of lines of evolutionary descent. (MS-LS4-2)
Adaptation by natural selection acting over generations is one important process by which species change over time in response to changes in environmental conditions. Traits that support successful survival and reproduction in the new environment become more common; those that do not become less common. Thus, the distribution of traits in a population changes. (MS-LS4-6)
LS4.B: Natural Selection: Natural selection leads to the predominance of certain traits in a population, and the suppression of others. (MS-LS4-4). In artificial selection, humans have the capacity to influence certain characteristics of organisms by selective breeding. One can choose desired parental traits determined by genes, which are then passed on to offspring. (MS-LS4-5)
LS4.A: Evidence of Common Ancestry and Diversity: The collection of fossils and their placement in chronological order (e.g., through the location of the sedimentary layers in which they are found or through radioactive dating) is known as the fossil record. It documents the existence, diversity, extinction, and change of many life forms throughout the history of life on Earth.(MS-LS4-1)
Anatomical similarities and differences between various organisms living today and between them and organisms in the fossil record, enable the reconstruction of evolutionary history and the inference of lines of evolutionary descent. (MS-LS4-2)
Comparison of the embryological development of different species also reveals similarities that show relationships not evident in the fully-formed anatomy. (MS-LS4-3)
NGSS Cross Cutting Concepts (CCC)
Crosscutting Concepts
Patterns:
Patterns can be used to identify cause and effect relationships. (MS-LS4-2)
Graphs, charts, and images can be used to identify patterns in data. (MS-LS4-1),(MS-LS4-3)
Cause and Effect:
Phenomena may have more than one cause, and some cause and effect relationships in systems can only be described using probability.
Structure and Function:
Complex and microscopic structures and systems can be visualized, modeled, and used to describe how their function depends on the shapes, composition, and relationships among its parts; therefore, complex natural and designed structures/systems can be analyzed to determine how they function. (MS-LS3-1)
