Science Lesson Plan: Target Outcomes

This science lesson plan focuses on teaching year 10 students about natural selection and evolution through anatomical evidence. Students will identify and compare homologous, analogous, and vestigial structures as evidence for evolution. They will examine how comparative anatomy of body parts across different animals supports evolution. The lesson involves a PowerPoint presentation with examples of homologous structures, watching a video on comparative anatomy as evidence of evolution, and a group activity comparing the human arm to a chicken wing to identify homologous structures.
