Classify fossil evidence
Free printable Grade 7 science worksheet for "Classify fossil evidence" — practice evolution and natural selection. No-prep, print or assign online.
Middle school students classify types of fossil evidence — body fossils, trace fossils, mold fossils, and cast fossils — and examine how each type supports our understanding of evolution and natural selection. Teachers can use this hard-level Life Science worksheet during an evolution unit to push students toward evidence-based reasoning about how past life informs our understanding of species change over time. It strengthens skills in scientific classification and inference.
Learning objectives
- Classify types of fossil evidence and describe what each reveals about past organisms
- Explain how fossil evidence supports the theory of evolution by natural selection
- Draw inferences about ancestral species based on fossil classification
