Objective (s)
Students will-apply concepts
of biology to answer practice
Keystone Questions.
Students will-classify
samples of organisms using
a dichotomous key.
Students will-design their
own dichotomous key to
classify a group of
butterflies.
Students will-compare
traditional classification to
phylogeny by finding 5
examples of organisms
whose classification has
been changed.
Students will-arrange
concepts learned about
taxonomy to create a
foldable of the 6 Kingdoms.

Students will pair up and design a dichotomous key to classify butterflies
based on a variety of characteristics. Teams will then switch keys and use
each other’s key to classify organisms.
P
Teacher will use a powerpoint to go over the concept of phylogeny.
Students will then research examples of organisms whose classification
has moved based on evolutionary evidence.
