2) Presenting skits on fitness and natural selection with different animals and plants 
3) Findings videos to play in class, stopping at certain parts, and asking the class to think about questions being asked about the video (e.g. What do you think will happen next?)]]> 2020-11-05 01:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/anne_j_yi/jxf5grvq04ne/wish/892429797 https://padlet.com/anne_j_yi/jxf5grvq04ne/wish/892429859 In google slides, make a slide that is completely dark and have some animal cutouts also in the slide. These animals could be "dark" or "bright" and ask them simple questions first:  which caught your attention first? and then relate that to natural selection.
