Teacher : Johnston,Hardman, Lipthratt, Hamilton
Course/ Subject: Biology
Date of Instruction: 8/23/23

TKES 1, 2, 3,4,5, 8,10


SB6. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to assess the theory of evolution.
b. Analyze and interpret data to explain patterns in biodiversity that result from speciation
d. Develop and use mathematical models to support explanations of how undirected genetic changes in natural selection and genetic drift have led to changes in populations of organisms.
Learning Target:

We are learning about how biodiversity is a result of speciation and ways this can occur.
Success Criteria: I know I’ll have it when I can:
Define biodiversity and species
Explain how new species can form through speciation
Analyze and interpret data to explain patterns of co-evolution that result from speciation.
