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.
Develop children’s knowledge of evolution and inheritance with our pre-planned and comprehensively resourced science project, Darwin’s Delights. This Year 6 project and supporting resources teach children about living things and their habitats, DNA and Darwin’s theory of natural selection.
If you’re looking for inspiring lessons and resources across the whole science curriculum, then the Cornerstones Science Curriculum offers everything you need for single or multi-year groups, with a collection of projects designed by subject experts to support teachers and subject leaders at every level of subject knowledge.
