To consolidate the children's learning of adaptation and animal survival, Year 6 played a special board game called 'Survival of the Fittest'. Each team was given a rabbit card which graded their bunny out of 10 for hearing, alertness, speed, fur colour and eyesight. The children (as bunnies) has to race around the board but were blocked by 'dangers' (red cards) and 'competitions' (green cards) which meant they could get knocked back to the start if their rabbit had not adapted sufficiently to its environment.
I really enjoyed the game because it gave me a better understanding of how animals adapt to survive. I also enjoyed trying to beat my friends!

The children throughly enjoyed the game and earned countless house points for their fantastic demonstrations of reciprocity.
The game was good because it showed us the different skills and changes animals have had to gain or learn in order to survive in the wild. Adaptation is crucial for animals to survive in their environments.
