In this activity, students will learn about the peppered moths and how they adapted to the industrial revolution. In addition to a fill-in-the-blank section, students will play an online game about peppered moths and watch an introduction video.

Students will research a genetic mutation and create a slideshow following the provided template. The first few slides explain the project and the rubric is also included here. The remaining slides can be used as a template for students who need one to follow.

In this google draw, students will arrange the levels of classification in order using a bull's eye diagram. In addition, they will practice writing a scientific name using the correct format. This activity is designed to take less than ten minutes for all students to complete. Some students can finish in under five.  It is a great warm-up or exit ticket activity for a lesson relating to the levels of classification.

In this project, students will draw the phases of mitosis, label appropriate structures inside the cell, and write a description for each phase. This was initially designed to be completed all on the computer. Students can use Paint, google draw, etc. to draw the phases on the computer, but students could always draw the phases by hand as well. Rubric is included and this project is worth 20 points.
