  6. Adaptive Advantages • Complete the handout on your own first. • Once completed, compare and discuss your answers with a partner.

  7. Planet Earth • We will watch 4 clips • As you watch the clips fill in the information on your sheet including: -Species -Environment -Adaptations • After the clip, compare your information with your group.

  8. Planet Earth • Once the clip is over, you will be given an environmental change. • Determine which species is most likely to survive, and what adaptations must occur in that species to ensure its survival. • Fill in your explanation on your sheet, and prepare to present, as a group, your predictions.

  9. The Arctic • Polar bears 1 • Polar Bears 2

  10. The Arctic • Environmental change: • Global warming has cause all of the arctic ice to melt leaving open ocean where there was once hard ice to walk and hunt on.

  15. Antarctic • Fur Seals and Penguins

  16. Antarctic • Environmental Change: There is no change. Discuss what adaptations could occur if the environment stays the same.

  17. Presentation Expectations • Presenters: • Speak clearly and loudly • Audience -Listen Quietly -Decide whether you agree or disagree -When presentation is over, you may be called upon to share your thoughts

  18. DO-NOW JAN 24TH On your Do Now Sheet, match the vocabulary word to the correct example.. 1. Adaptation 2. Population 3. Variation Picture A Picture B Picture C
