Year 11 Biology Virtual Study
In week 5, The Australian Museum, Taronga Zoo and Royal Botanic Gardens teamed up to create a virtual study day for year 11 Biology students covering the topic of Biological Diversity.
Over 3 hours online, we examined fossils, specimens, live animals and plants. Students gained an understanding of Biological Diversity by explaining the relationships between a range of organisms in terms of specialisation for selected habitats and evolution of species.
The presenters were fantastic and our students participated well, asking some really thoughtful questions. We especially loved seeing the live animals from Taronga zoo, and learning about their adaptations and selection pressures.
