|
|
| |
|
Slide
1
This is the title slide for
your seaweeds..
|
| Slide
2
Show
some single cells and some cells
in clumps.
|
|
Slide 3
Describe
the environment where your algae are
developing.Does
sticking together in clumps help
them? In what way?
Show
how your algae are settling into this environment. These
will be your first
complex life forms.
|
|
Slide 4
Show the
developmental stages of your first
seaweed. You will design the ancestor of the other seaweeds.
Show
gradual development: don't make big
jumps.
Tell how
the adaptations help the seaweeds.
|
|
Slide 5
Explain
how adaptation and natural selection
work together to shape organisms
A good
explanation of the process here will
make it easier for you to make the
following frames meaningful.
|
|
Slide 6
Biome
One
Describe the changes in the environment.
Explain how the changes affect your
organisms.
|

Slide 7
Show how the organisms changed in
response to the changes in
the environment.
Explain how these changes helped the
organisms to survive.
Remember, change is gradual.

Slides 8 and following
Continue on to Biomes Two and Three.
Remember, you need as many biomes as
there
are people in your group.
|

Final
Slide
Draw a
family tree diagram to show how the
seaweeds that you made are related to
each other.
|
Once you have your
text all laid out, select a background for your slides and add graphics as
appropriate. Attractive
appearance contributes to your
grade, as does demonstration of
understanding of the scientific
concepts involved. You may include additional material if you wish.
|
| Grading
will be for these qualities: |
| |
A
neat,
complete, attractive, good written introduction,
links work, imagination and
creativity are
evident, a good understanding
of evolution is demonstrated, turned in
on time.. |
| |
B
complete,
links work, well thought out,
understanding of evolution shown, turned
in within a week of deadline. |
|
C problems:
incomplete, writing errors, links don't work, poor
understanding of evolution, poorly
thought out, turned in by Week 4. |
