Inheritance and Evolution

This week we have started our new unit in science - Inheritance and Evolution. We started by looking at characteristics of living things and deciding if they are inherited or whether they are due to environmental factors. We will also be looking at how plants and animals are adapted to their environments, use fossils to see how living things have changed over millions of years and learn about cladograms and have a go at designing our own. Finally, we will look at Darwin's Theory of Evolution.
