O rganize
the important facts, definitions, and information onto white note
cards.
"I will start out by writing
the important information for the heading on Natural Selection.
I will write "Charles Darwin" on the front of a card
and on the back I will write :
- Founder of evolutionary theory
- Formed hypothesis on evolution on Galapagos Islands
Next I will write definition on the front and on the back I will
write:
- Change in populations that occurs when organisms with favorable
variations for an environment survive, reproduce, and pass
those variations onto the next generation.
On the third card I will write the word Adaptations on the front
and the definition on the back:
- Make organisms more likely to survive
- Examples are mimicry and camouflage."

"I've put all the white cards
in the right columns. Now I'm going to read the front as a question
like, "Who was Charles Darwin?" Then I will check the
back to see if I'm right."
