Y6 Hawthorn & Oak

In geography and science, we have been investigating and learning about Darwin’s theories of evolution. We
learned about the example of the peppered moth to help us understand Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution by
natural selection. First, we studied what England was like before and after the Industrial Revolution.
We learned how the environment changed during this time and why these changes were important for living
things. Next, we took part in a game to model what might happen to a population of moths in different
environments. We then changed the environment in our activity and carefully discussed our observations.
