Our Ecology students participated in an activity to demonstrate the process of natural selection. Students were given different traits and had to “compete” to make it across the courtyard, experiencing how certain traits can provide an advantage in different environments. The activity helped students see how individuals with beneficial traits are more likely to survive. It was a fun and interactive way to bring the concept of natural selection to life! #BDP #BetterEveryDay #ForksUp
