Project Overview
This project teaches children about how living things on Earth have changed over time, and how fossils provide evidence for this. They learn how characteristics are passed from parents to their offspring, and how variation in offspring can affect their survival, with changes (adaptations) possibly leading to evolution.
It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogy – Engage, Develop, Innovate, Express – to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.
*This project is part of the Cornerstones Science Curriculum and is not sold separately.
