What’s included in the Year 6 Evolution and Inheritance 5-Minute Science resource and why is it useful?

Year 6 Evolution and Inheritance 5-Minute Science is a set of three revision worksheets covering the whole topic of evolution and inheritance. These have been designed to give your children up to three opportunities to engage in deliberate practice outside of the teaching of the topic. This resource covers how living things have changed over time and what fossils tell us, how a fossil forms, how offspring vary from their parents through inherited and environmental variation, and how animals and plants are adapted to suit their environments.

How do our 5 Minute Science resources work?

As these resources are designed for re-cap and revision, you could use 5 Minute Science resources during the topic for early morning work, towards the end of the topic or even later in the year as a re-cap. The content across the three worksheets covers the national curriculum objectives for evolution and inheritance year 6 science.

Each unit in the science curriculum has been covered in the 5 Minute Science range.
