Evolving Minds Curriculum

It’s hard to find high-quality curriculum materials you can trust to be accurate, evidenced-based, and easy-to-use. That’s what Evolving Minds offers you – for free! Each lesson starts with an investigation question, elicits students’ ideas, scaffolds their scientific practices, and helps them make meaning out of evidence through classroom discussion. Together, children construct and revise a model of natural selection, the main mechanism of biological evolution and the diversity of life on earth – and a foundational concept in science education.
