7th grade science students became “birds” this week in a natural selection lab. Using “beaks” made of spoons, binder clips, tweezers, or chopsticks, they competed against the other birds in their group. If they did not eat enough, they did not pass on their genes. They had a blast investigating which beak variation was best for survival and what happens to populations over time! 🐦 #STEM
