and inhospitable place.

Before the middle of the 17th century, almost all people believed that God had created everything we see on earth until after Darwin with his theory "The Origin of Species" completely changed all existing concepts where evolution took over.

It has an atmosphere composed mainly of nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%).

Earth is the only known body in the universe that has large amounts of liquid water on its surface. Oceans, rivers and lakes cover approximately 71% of its surface.

The Earth has a solid crust composed of rocks and minerals. This crust is divided into several tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid mantle.

The Earth has a gravitational force that pulls objects toward its center. This gravity is about six times weaker than that of Jupiter, but strong enough to hold the atmosphere and retain water and atmosphere.

To foster creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking among students as they explore concepts of evolution, biodiversity, and adaptation.

Game Mechanics:

Group Formation: Students are divided into groups of five.

Creating a New Species: Each group works together to invent a new species that will inhabit Earth in the future. They must think about the physical, behavioral and adaptive characteristics of their species.

Characteristics of the new species: Students should consider aspects such as physical appearance (shape, color, size), preferred habitat, diet, reproduction system, special abilities, adaptations to possible environmental changes, among others.

Illustration: Each group creates a drawing illustrating their new species. They can use colored pencils, paints, or even graphic design software if they wish.

Presentation: At the end of the time allotted for the activity, each group presents their new species and explains the characteristics they have created. The other groups can ask questions or make comments about the species presented.
