1. What are the typical sequences of events in fossilization , how does the fossil evidence support the theory of evolution and why are fossil gaps present?
2. What can the presence of homologous and analogous structures signify and how does comparative morphology provide evidence for evolution?

Quick introduction about fossils, museums, and videos that are part of the life of students.
Challenge the students to “Explore together the processes of evolution that are evident in today's world as you draw your own conclusion and determine how the available historical evidence shapes the scientific theory of evolution.”

We will give the Evolution Survey developed by the Evolution and the Nature of Science Institute at Indiana University.
The Survey addresses many misconceptions students hold about evolution; misconceptions we hope the students will dispel themselves.

How does the available historical evidence shape the scientific theory of evolution?
Questions to guide the discussion developed Students will submit questions they wish to discuss throughout the
unit If additional study is needed to arrive at answers, then students will
investigate the questions the following day and present them to the class prior to the post test.
Students will also be referred to optional additional background reading
material for more useful information for answers to some of the discussion questions.

• Students will create a 10 minute short PowerPoint presentation (6-8 slides) on a specific kind of evidence for evolution worth 10 points.
• The group present this to their class audience.
• Presentations will focus on explanations to account for how the evidence explains the scientific basis for evolution.
• Class notes and assignment additional reading material can be used as reference.
• Use of some sort of visual aid (pictures, videos etc.) is encouraged.
• All information must be accompanied by a proper MLA or APA style citation.

The identical test given to students at the beginning of this unit of study.
We will be able to assess our lesson plans be comparing the results of this test to the pretest.
Any remaining misconceptions will be addressed.
