Taxonomy

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Students complete a short quiz reviewing classification. In groups, they create their own family trees and discuss who is related to whom and are introduced to phylogenies in genetics. To end the instructional activity, they take notes on Taxonomy and share their own mnemonic devices.
