  1. As science teachers using NGSS, we don't just teach facts. We use storylines to connect facts into a larger picture. A fun way to get students interested in evolution can be to use clips from fun science fiction movies.

    Many kids have seen the Tremors series of movies, featuring the fictional animal, Graboids. While fictional, we can ask - if they were real, how could they have evolved? With careful observation and Socratic questioning we inspire students to posit what form of life they could have evolved from - in doing so we cover natural selection, convergent evolution, and clades and phylogenies!

  5. Biology teachers can have fun with this! In this lesson students view scenes from the Tremors series of movies. Students take notes on Graboid biology: external anatomy, internal anatomy, lifecycle and behavior.
