Fun way to get kids to really own human evolution

Chris Scaturo
Chris Scaturo over 6 years ago

Looking for a way to get kids to really own human evolution? My current project is making them rewrite the song "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes".
 
They aren't done but some examples are:
 
Heads got bigger with their brains, with their brains
Hands used to grasp tools, not to climb
Feet changed so we caaaaan walk
And thighs straightened up, straightened up!

    These are great, Chris! I always love how creative you are with your assignments. You should submit some in our Student Writing contest this month. You still have a week to share samples fo student work.

    Love that is through provoking, but a fun, relatively short activity that demonstrates understanding. Thank you for sharing!
